Here's what to expect when you study with us.

Library and course literature

The Campus library is open to SIFA students and faculty. When you have registered and started a student account with us, you can borrow books from the Campus Library. You will need a valid ID every time you borrow a book. We have a wide range of fiction and non-fiction books. You can also borrow course books for SIFA:s courses. At the start of our courses, you will receive information from your teachers about which course books you will need.
