Workplaces in the library
In all branch libraries, various types of workplaces are available during the opening hours.
Good to know:
Especially during the examination phase our workplaces are highly sought after. Use our "Pausenzettel" e.g. if you go to drink a coffee.
Just ask for it at one of our information desks.
This does not apply to PC workstations.
Tip:
Check the MyUDE-App to find available PC workstations.
