Media for Lending
Most library media can be borrowed for at-home use.
Media within the open access areas can be directly taken from the shelves. All books with a yellow shelf number label may be borrowed. Books with a red call number label or red dot above the call number label are non-borrowable and may only be used within the library building. Other non-borrowable media which can only be used within the library are:
- Unbound works, newspapers and journals,
- Collections of loose sheets,
- Microforms,
- Books in course reserved reading shelves.
Certain media might also be excluded from lending due to their size, weight or their conservation status.
Media from the closed stack areas can be requested directly from the SLUB catalog. Requested items will be provided after a short time in the self pick-up area or at the service counter.
You can check out your media at the self-service terminals during the opening hours of the Central Library and the Departmental Library DrePunct or at the service counter during the service period.
