Reservation of study spaces in the library

From ZEuS-Wiki english


Overview

The Rectorate’s decision means that students can use the Library again to study from Thursday, 18 June 2020 on. Important: you will have to register beforehand via ZEuS and adhere to the infection protection provisions. There are two slots available from Mondays to Fridays between 8:00 and 18:00. The number per slot (see below) is restricted to 300 persons. Depending on future developments, we have planned to extend this option step by step.

The most important information in brief:

  • 300 study spaces will be available.
  • There are two time slots (8:00-12:30 and 13:30-18:00).
  • You must reserve your place beforehand as a course in ZEuS.
  • You can only book one slot per day.
  • Reservation is always possible starting on Friday, 19:00, in the previous week until the actual day at 7:00 am. Outside the period a reservation will not be possible.

Procedure of study space reservation

This procedure is the same as registering for courses or examinations.
