On Boys' Day, pupils gain an insight into social, cultural and artistic study programmes at Paderborn University and learn about professional fields in which men are less frequently represented. The University Library presents the profession of "Media and Information Services Specialist, specialising in the library".

Students and doctoral candidates from all faculties are invited to spend four days in the library working intensively on their writing projects. They will be supported with advice and short workshops on the topics of writing, literature searches and procrastination.
