SLUB | Saxon State Library – State and University Library Dresden

Probably the prettiest library I’ve been to. Modern, but has a Harry Potter vibe too. I’d big, super cozy and comfortable, had an amazing new area with cozy seating but also a big quite study room, has a lot of spaces in different parts. It’s the only library Ive been to that is under the earth but has a lot of day light in the upper level. The roof has a cafeteria inside and the rest is a meadow which used to have many paths to walk and chill. Definitely one of my favorite places in Dresden to show and to be.

Studied in this place for 4 years! Quiet and cozy! Large spaces and plenty of seats!

Pro: -Large library with a wide range of themes in its source bank -Various locations for alone study, group discussion, and accommodations with full facilities -Extremely large capacity -Easy access and clean toilets -Many lockers -Friendly staff and security members -Close to Mensa (1 minute walk) and there is a Canteen in the library -Comfy sofas provided for lazy people -Scanners and printers provided -Close to transportation system -Parking for car and bike in nearby -Bank ATM for cash money -Open on Sundays! Cons: -During exam season, it is extremely crowded.

A cozy place to learn and live. During the exam period one needs to fight for seats and sockets, however you'll be rewarded with fast WiFi, no phone reception and a considerable amount of male as well as female models on the catwalk. This wonderful place hosts you from 8 to midnight and gently wishes you good night before sending you home with your exhausted mind. Hint: there is cheap coffee and ridiculously cheap chocolate bars next to the lockers. Mmmh, my SLUB never disappoints. Come and check it out!

Great architecture. European top level. Worth a visit.

Everything is good. Exept for some details that I personally didn't like: The cafeteria and the food are of poor quality according to my personal standards. The personnel: some of them are a little bit unfriendly. You d better avoid them if you want to keep in mood. The library itself is not like all libraries I know, where it is forbidden to talk loudly. Here everybody can talk loudly so you have got to bring your headphones and your favorite music with you especially if you are sensitive to noise.

The fact that u r not allowed to bring a backpack inside anymore is just annoying (I understand the reason behind it tho but its still annoying :/ ) but everything else is just amazing in there :)

The library is one of the most magical places you can visit in Dresden. If you love books and love libraries, you're in for a treat. It's huge and there are endless shelves upon shelves of books. If you're looking for a place for a study session, it's a perfect spot.
