The renewed Soroksár Library of MESZL has opened
On 19th April 2023, to the joy of our Readers in Soroksár, our library has reopened with state-of-the-art services, evoking the aquatic world of the nearby Danube with its playful interior design. During the ceremony, speeches were given by dr. Anett Bősz, Deputy Mayor, Ferenc Bese, the Mayor of Soroksár and Péter Fodor, the Director General of MESZL, who also welcomed the youngest and the oldest readers of the library. During this event the Budapest Book Capital 2023 program series has officially started, which offers 300 programs to enrich the cultural life of the capital city.

The library is now accessible from Grassalkovich street, and welcomes its readers with a cosy children's corner, a computer station with accommodations for parents with babies and a reading section with 20 different types of periodicals (weekly and daily papers) to choose from. The library offers a user-friendly environment, modern technology and a renewed library stock of 10.000 books. One new feature is the self-service checkout machine for books and documents. There is also an opportunity - with the help of the self-service swap point or 'locker' system - to take out reserved books and other documents and also return them, regardless of opening hours. We hope the residents of the district will soon grow to love the renewed library. The library was realized as an investment by MESZL, with the support of the Metropolitan Municipality and the National Cultural Fund. In the second phase, the renovation of the old library building will be finished. With the support of the district's government a readers' park will be created. The handover of this is expected to occur in October 2023.
In honor of the Memorial Year of Petőfi, the library welcomes its readers as Petőfi 200 Memorial Library.
