Due to construction work the university library's services will be limited during the summer.
From 8 till 12 July and 19 till 30 August the library will be closed completely.
From 5 July till 2 September 2024 it will not be possible to request any items.
Items that are requested before 5 July can still be collected during the opening hours.

Revising the online catalogue
In order to heighten user friendliness we are currently revising our online catalogue. The updated version will be released on 6 July 2024.
In the process the saved items list as well as the personal search and loan history will be deleted. Our advise is to take screenshots of these, should you wish to keep them. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to automatically import this data to the new online catalogue.
After the go-live we will continue work on the search engine. Please understand that due to this you might encounter bugs and error messages.
By September 2024 (at the latest) we will offer detailed information materials as well as training courses on the revised online catalogue.
