National Library of Norway, National library facility in Oslo and Mo i Rana, Norway.

The National Library operates from two locations, with its public division in Henrik Ibsens gate, Oslo, and a mountain vault in Mo i Rana.

The institution emerged in 1988 when Norway separated the national library functions from the University of Oslo Library, which previously managed these responsibilities.

The library maintains an exhibition titled 'Enlightened' that presents Norwegian cultural items, including Edvard Grieg's handwritten scores and Roald Amundsen's South Pole letters.

The Oslo location opens Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 9 PM and Saturday from 10 AM to 6 PM, while the Mo i Rana facility requires advance arrangements.

The Map Centre contains printed maps of Norway dating from 1482, representing the largest collection of Norwegian cartographic materials in existence.
