Starting now, the campus libraries are extending their services with modern book pickup stations and the new Open Library concept. This gives you flexible access to your academic materials—even outside regular opening hours.

The Book Pickup Station (similar to a package locker)
•    This service applies to all pre-ordered materials as well as interlibrary loan items that are to be picked up outside of staffed opening hours.

Here’s how easy it is to place an order:
•    By 3:00 p.m.: Send us your material requests via email.
•    Pickup: You’ll receive an email with the item number and your personal access code.

The New Open Library Concept
•    NEW: Open Library: Extends your independent access to the library spaces beyond regular service hours. For on-site identification, you’ll need your student ID and your PIN.
•    On-site borrowing: During these hours, you can easily borrow books from the open-shelf section on your own using the self-checkout machine.

Media Return Boxes

We are pleased to announce that media can now be returned via a media return box at all locations, even outside of regular opening hours. Part-time students, in particular, can now drop off their media on weekends as well—as long as the university buildings are accessible.

Important Notes on Use:

• No Interlibrary Loans: We do not accept interlibrary loan items via the return box. Please always return these directly to library staff during service hours.

• Completeness: Before placing items in the box, please check that they are complete (CDs, inserts, etc.).

• Due Dates & Return Processing: The box is emptied on the library’s next opening day, and the contents are processed as returned. As a user, you are responsible for returning borrowed media by the due date.

• Liability: The library assumes no liability for media deposited in the box!
