The Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin is a central library for research in the humanities and social sciences. Its StabiKat catalogue lists over 200 million articles, books, journals, e-books, digitised items and databases. Users can order books from the stacks online with a library card, reserve seats, group rooms, lockers and equipment through StabiBooking, and use interlibrary loan and newspaper collections.

The library serves researchers, students and other readers who use its reading rooms, consultation services and cultural programme of workshops, events and exhibitions. Books published from 1921 onward can be borrowed for home use by holders of a library card with a residence in Germany. The collections are split between two sites: Unter den Linden holds literature from before 1900, and Potsdamer Straße covers subjects from the modern era.

The library operates two buildings in central Berlin, at Potsdamer Platz and Unter den Linden. Opening hours are 08:00 to 22:00 Monday to Saturday and 10:00 to 18:00 on Sundays. The career page lists open positions and vocational training, and states that the employer holds a family-friendly certification with flexible working time models and mobile working.
