More than four million documents, including more than two million books, are freely accessible. The library brings together two major collections, including the National Collection, which includes everything published in Quebec, everything published about Quebec elsewhere in the world, and all publications in which at least one of the creators is a Quebecer, since the time of New France. This impressive heritage is available for free consultation. The layout of the reading rooms has been designed so that everyone can enjoy the calm and optimal light. The upper floors, with their large bay windows, offer several beautiful views of the city centre. An auditorium, a conference centre and exhibition rooms continuously animate the premises. Between the study of two books, you can visit an exhibition, meet writers, attend a debate or learn a new language.

La bibliothèque est très impressionnante, sur 4 ou 5 étages. Vous n'avez pas besoin d'être membre, l'accès y est gratuit pour bouquiner, utiliser les stations d'écoute ou de visionnement.

S'il est un haut lieu qui présente l'essentiel de la culture canadienne française et québécoise, c'est bien ce qu'on appelle la BNQ. L'édifice est bien situé, au coeur de Montréal. Il est libre d'accès et extrêmement confortable. On y retrouve de multiples documents présentés sous toutes les formes. Livres, CD, films, autres présentations numériques. On peut les consulter sur place ou les emprunter. On peut aussi avoir accès gratuitement à un ordinateur et au WiFi. En un mot, accéder à la culture francophone en Amérique et anglophone du Québec.

Le centre de la culture livresque à Montréal. On y retrouve des ouvrages courants sur tous les sujets, mais aussi des ouvrages et archives à caractère historique; bonnes sources généalogiques. Fréquentation par gens de tous âges, notamment par des étudiant(e)s.
