A portal to knowledge, open to everyone.

Your university library as a gateway to knowledge, a guide to data collections, literature and information, and a source of support for open-access publications.

We provide the literature and information necessary for study, teaching and research; we assist with the search for, acquisition or provision of relevant materials; and we support the promotion of open-access publications of academic findings.

Our university library is open to everyone. In addition to students and researchers at the university, non-university members may also use our services as external users – the services of the HSB.

Whether for academic purposes or out of personal curiosity: we warmly welcome all interested parties!
