For people who wish to enroll in the Library, or who no longer have a card, access to Palazzo Farnese is only possible with the prior agreement of the library manager. An email must, imperatively, be sent to both the addresses bibliotheque.direction(at)efrome.it and accueil.bibliotheque(at)efrome.it at least one week before the required date of registration. The request must include the scan of the following documents:

• University enrollment certificate according to the category of students;
• Letter of introduction from the research director for students enrolled in the doctoral or postgraduate school course, or in the Master's course (in the latter case, only students enrolled at a French university are interested).

To renew the library card, only the following documents are required, and must be sent to the same e-mail addresses (again, at least one week before the required date):

• Valid ID;                    
• Registration form (in french).

The required date of registration or renewal (day and time) should be precisely indicated on the application form sent to both the addresses bibliotheque.direction(at)efrome.it and accueil.bibliotheque(at)efrome.it. It is possible to register at the Library from Monday to Friday, from 9am to 5pm.
