Abstract

The Royal Library in Copenhagen is a central Danish national library which serves also as a university library (for the universities in Copenhagen and Aarhus), research institution as well as cultural and exhibition center. The new building named the Black Diamond  has been connected to the traditional old one. Library activities also connect the past with the present. The following data were presented in this paper: history, architecture, book collection, and multidimensional function of the library. All of them are based on the information obtained by the author during his personal visit in the Royal Library.
