Short-term loan

Items from the open-access sections of the branch libraries that cannot normally be borrowed and have an even shelfmark may be borrowed under a short-term loan agreement.

  • Short-term overnight loans during the week:
    Monday – Friday, by 6pm at the latest, due the following day
  • Short-term weekend loans:
    Friday or Saturday, by 6pm at the latest,

Returns:

In case of late return after 10am, a fee of 2.00 € per borrowed media unit will be charged. These will increase by 2.00 € per calendar day if the loan period is exceeded even further.
