Odder Bibliotek
At Odder Library you can borrow books, movies and games, read a newspaper, use a computer, use a workstation, and much more. Everybody is welcome – local citizens as well as tourists.
Much more than books
The library offers a big selection of reading material. All genres are covered – from fiction to non-fiction and children’s books. Here, you can find a good crime novel by your favourite writer, an autobiography or explore local history. Most of the books are in Danish, but there are also books in English and German.
This is also the place where you can rent movies, games for Playstation, audiobooks, and music.
Just as importantly, the library is a place for immersion and relaxation. There are tables, chairs, and sofas and the option to read a magazine or a newspaper. There are computers for general use, and the possibility of using a copying machine for 2 DKK per page.
