Already promised for a long time, the building activities concerning the modernization of power distribution in the reading rooms of the TUHH library start on Tuesday, September 13, 2016. Among other things, electrical sockets for your laptops will be installed. In the next weeks, troubles by using the working spaces of the readings rooms will be unavoidable. It will be noisy sometimes.
We ask for your understanding.
On next Tuesday library staff will enjoy their annual outing. The University Library will be opened from 8:00am to 9:00pm, but we can only offer restricted service from 9:00am to 3:00pm.
Checking in and out of books will be possible during the opening hours as well as paying fees at the fee machine.

The TUHH as an university of technology has the mission to develop technology for people. The university TUHH offers research and education at a high academic level. For the future development and competitiveness in the international context, the TUHH must participate in the discussion on Open Access for research results and research data. Open Access can result in a higher quality of scientific results, better visibility and greater discussion within the scientific community and a better international cooperation. Funding sources as DFG and EU already require open access availability of research results. Hamburg has just launched a prestudy for Hamburg Open Archive, the platform for Open Access in Hamburg.
TUHH adopted the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) recommendations to ensure “Good Scientific Practice” and also the DFG “Guidelines for handling research data“. In this context, we would like to collect requirements and needs for research data management at TUHH. Research data in this survey is defined as raw data (measured data, source code, simulation results, image data, etc.) on which research results and publications are based.
The TUHH survey about Research Data on behalf of the Präsidium of TUHH is based on the already carried out surveys of the Humboldt University (2013) and the Technische Universität Darmstadt (2015). Participation is voluntary and anonymously possible in German and English. The Scientific Staff and the DV-Beauftragte have been invited by mail to participate in the survey. In case we missed anyone interested at TUHH, please send a short mail to the library. Thank you so much!
The survey is online until 8/15/2016.
For questions, please contact the library or the President’s Research Department.
Our Open Access Repository tub.dok is now integrated into the Shibboleth infrastructure of the TUHH. This means that you can use the advantages of a Single Sign On to publish on tub.dok and are not required to login seperately (once you have logged in on the login page of the TUHH computer center).
The former login with your TUHH account is not necessary any more as Shibboleth is utilizing the same login data. Authors, who do not have a TUHH account, but want to publish on tub.dok are still free to create a local tub.dok account to publish with this account.
On Wednesday, 22-06-2016, the reading rooms of the University library are open despite a staff meeting at the TU Hamburg. Our service desks will be staffed at noon.
