To kick off the semester, we’re happy to help you get your bearings in the library’s daily routine. Guided tours of the Emil-Figge-Bibliothek will take place from October 12 to 22. You can also find us Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at our University Library booth in the cafeteria foyer.

Here you can ask us anything about the library: Where can I find books? How can I download e-books? Where can I study? And much more. At the Emil-Figge-Bibliothek, the Sebrath-Bibliothek, and on the Campus-Süd-Bibliothek, we’re available during our service hours to answer your questions and will be happy to give you a brief introduction. The resources offered by the Hybrid Learning Center, including the MakerSpace, are also available to all students.
