On MANGA DAY, 26 September 2026, all participating comic and bookshops, as well as libraries in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, will be offering free, extensive excerpts from selected manga.

The publishers are aiming to provide a mix of established series and the latest releases. Whether it’s fantasy, romance, action or mystery – there’s something for everyone!

We’ll also be offering free special editions from 10 publishers. Plus, we’ve put together a wide-ranging programme again this year.

What are students allowed to do in a course that uses generative AI - and how should its use be made transparent? The UB AI Community of Practice addresses these questions in a hands-on workshop where participants can develop a preliminary draft of an AI policy for their own course or exam.

When?
30.09.2026, 4pm – 6pm 

Where?
Training room of the GW/GSW Library, Essen campus

Sign up until:
28.09.2026

The workshop will be held in German.
