Construction noise in the Main Library

There is currently construction noise in the Main Library due to renovation work in the basement. If the noise is disruptive, please use one of the branch libraries or visit during the quieter evening hours.

This work is part of the renovation project to update the Main Library's ventilation and heating system.

We'll do our best to make sure you have the best possible working conditions also during the renovation period:

  • Earplugs are available free of charge at the former information desk in the Main Library’s reading room.
  • Quiet study spaces are also available at our Departmental Libraries Ulmer Hof and Aula. You can reserve a reading room locker (Aula) or a movable storage container (Ulmer Hof) for your documents.
  • For group work a group study room is also available in the Aula Library on the first floor.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this necessary modernization work and will keep you informed of progress on site and on our website. Please contact us if you have any questions.
