The University Library (UB)

Supporting your academic goals, that is the aim of the University Library. We are in close contact with the academic world and we are of crucial importance to students, teachers and researchers in this rapidly changing digital world. There is an active connection, via a Citizen science Hub, with civilians who can participate in scientific research. The University Library is constantly changing and this offers our professionals the opportunity to show their entrepreneurship and the possibility for personal growth. We work with a very motivated and collective team with consideration for everyone’s wellbeing.

Apart from regular study places, the University Library offers some special-function spaces such as a makerspace and DIY podcast and video studios. Our services are continually under development, with room to experiment, and can be seen as a true ‘living lab’. An example of the recent progression is the use of a service robot in our information services.
