If the media are not absolutely present (red spine label), you can borrow media from the UB collection. You will need a library card for this. You can check out items at the self-check-out terminals or at the circulation desk in the entrance area of the library.

The lending hours for media that can be borrowed via the self-check-in terminals are basically identical to the opening hours of the UB.

The issue of media that cannot be borrowed via the self-check-in terminals (e.g. interlibrary loan orders) is only possible from Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m..

If loan periods are exceeded - to which no grace days or similar are added - charges apply.
