Opening Hours & Info
La Médiathèque
In line with the latest government decisions, the on-site activities of the Institut francais have now been suspended, which means that the Library Click & Collect service is currently not available.
Until then, we’re always open online:
+ visit Culturethèque to access a wide range of digital content for free.
+ access online newspapers and magazines free of charge on Europresse.
Please note that it is not possible to return items while the Institut is closed. However, all items have been extended so you may simply hold on to them until we reopen.
