New to the Library? 1. Library Card
If you want to borrow books from the university library in order to use them at home or on campus, you need a library card.
For students of TUHH this card is free, but you have to apply for it and come to the library personally. Within a few minutes you will receive your library card and get started.
” Apply ” means that you log on with your personal data here.
Pickup is available at the circulation counter in the university library from Monday – Thursday 9:00am – 7:00pm and Friday 9:00am – 6:00pm, if you present the following:
- Identity card or passport including resident`s registration document
- Student ID ( or enrollment or HVV ticket )
A valid email address is very important for a smooth service – e. g. for reminder emails at the end of the loan period!
