Heads-up on renovations of the library: Construction work during semester holidays 2019-2021

The library building will be renovated from 2019 to 2021. The renovations are scheduled to take place during semester holidays in Summer so as to disrupt university life as little as possible.

Opening hours during renovations

Summer 2019

The library building including the library will remain closed between the 06.07.2019 (Sat) and the 08.09.2019 (Sat) due to renovations.
As an exception, the library will also remain closed between the 01.08.2019 (Thu) until the 04.08.2019 (Sun) (Building B will already be closed due to renovations).

Summer 2020/2021

The library building is predicted to be closed from mid-July (after exam preparation period) until mid-September (before fresher’s week).

How can books be accessed during the renovations?

The protection of our book collection will have a high priority during the renovations (mid-July to mid-September 2019 to 2021). The open stacks and study spaces in the library building will not be accessible to students during this time. Authorisied personnel will receive restricted access. Books will be available from a special, provisional desk.
