If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Charles McCathieNevile. I will try to answer as fast as possible - email is generally the most effective channel.
Please note that Denmark is a party to the Schengen treaty, so if you enter from another EU member which is part of this treaty you will not need to pass immigration control. However Denmark is not in the Eurozone, and uses the Kronor.
Copenhagen has an international airport served by major airlines and a number of discount airlines, and well connected to the city's public transport system by train. There are also trains, buses and ferries from various parts of Europe.
Trains and taxis provide local transport in Copenhagen.
To get to the National Library Authority, you can catch a bus 1 or 6, from the Østerport train station to Kongens Nytorv. More detailed directions are available from the National Library Authority itself. Nyhavn is a well-known part of Copenhagen.
