Excellent place with all you need to work :)

During the day you can just walk into the library but in the evening you need a card to get in.

You're only allowed to use computer at the one big table in the back. But you can use the other tables to read or chat. Wifipassword: Chaibeforeyoudie

FYI this place has a big sign for no laptops or tablets but you can def sit and read a book or chat a long time.

You need a library card to get in but you don't have to be a student to get one (see https://uba.uva.nl/en/online-access-and-borrowing/library-card/library-card.html#anker-free-library-card) However, it's pretty crowded with students most of the time but pretty much always able to get a seat.

A great spot but they will kick you out at busy times for people with a reservation
