Study Spaces and Technology

Study Spaces

Do you want to study in a relaxed environment close to nature? Then you can't go wrong with our study spaces/desks, where quiet group work is also allowed in some cases.

In the special reading room with 6 study spaces/desks, you can use the works of our vast historical collection. This is considered the priority use of the room. However, if this room isn't currently needed for the previously mentioned purpose, it can be used as a group study room.

Technology

Our electronic research and information services can be accessed via our PC workstations and the campus-wide WiFi.

In addition, print items can now be scanned for free using a Bookeye 5 V3 colour overhead book scanner (up to A3 format). You can save your scanned documents to your own USB stick, send them by e-mail or transfer them to the "Scan2Mobile" app. We also have ScanTents available at all locations.
