If you're learning, you have to take a break!
But blocking seats for hours? Please don't!

Use our break slip (= "Pausenzettel"):

• Simply enter the time and leave the break slip in a clearly visible place on the desk.
• The place remains reserved for a maximum of 60 minutes.
• If the 60 minutes are exceeded, other users may move the materials to the side, sit down and study there.

The break slips are available at the counters and on the desks. 

Please note:

• This rule applies to individual study places. 
• It is not possible to reserve PCs or study places in group study rooms or areas.
