Our activities

At KIB, we are specialists in information management. We know how to effectively search for and find relevant information in the field of medicine. We also know how to store information and make it accessible so that others can find it, use it, or build upon it. Using this expertise, we support KI’s students, researchers, and teachers throughout all stages of education and the research process. KIB is also responsible for preserving, developing, and sharing knowledge about KI’s medical and scientific heritage, as well as managing and providing access to KI’s cultural heritage collections.

Equal opportunities

Karolinska Institutet's activities must be characterised by participation, openness, gender equality and diversity. At the library, we work actively to ensure that our services can be used by all equally. 

KIB has a zero tolerance policy regarding discrimination, sexism and racism. All library visitors and staff must be treated with respect.
