To ensure that everyone has a pleasant time in the library and can study and work in a friendly atmosphere, there are a few rules you should follow when you visit.
Noise level
The library is divided into three areas:
- Lower reading room: Quiet conversations are permitted here as long as they do not disturb other people.
- Upper reading room: This is our quiet study area. Talking is not allowed in this area, and if necessary, only short and in whispers.
- Group study rooms: These rooms are intended for discussion. Therefore, conversations may be held here at a reasonable volume.

Food and drink
Food and drink are generally permitted in the library.
However, strong-smelling foods are not permitted. Pizza, kebabs, etc. must be consumed outside, e.g. in the cafeteria opposite.
Alcohol consumption is also not permitted in the library.
Bringing bags and coats
Coats and bags may be taken into the reading rooms. If you do not wish to do so, you can borrow a key for the lockers in the entrance area at the ServicePoint. You will need a valid library card for this.
Cleanliness
No one wants to work at a table covered in crumbs. Please leave your workspaces in a clean condition so that the next person can also use the rooms and spaces.
