As French ambassador Henri Bonnet expressed, the American Library provides “an open window on the free world” during this dark period of European history. During the Occupation, the Library staff mount their own resistance campaign by delivering books to Jewish members who have been forbidden by the Nazis to use libraries.
Starting on Saturday 16 January, the Library will close each night at 18h in accordance with the new national curfew.
On Saturday and Sunday, the Library will open early to compensate for the reduced evening hours.
Tue–Fri: 10h–18h | Sat: 9h30–18h | Sun: 12h–18h | Mon: Closed
