Renovating UB
This is how things work at the library during the renovation
During the renovation, the library will mainly operate on the third floor. The information desk, books, journals, printer, search computers, newspaper computer and study spaces for reading room loans will be found on this floor. Welcome.
Renovation completion during the spring semester!
Until then, we need to change our opening hours to give us time to move into our renovated library.
Temporary opening hours from 3 February
The library will open at noon on weekdays from 3 February. The new opening hours will apply until we reopen the entrance floor. Unfortunately, we do not yet have a date when we will open and return to regular opening hours.
We welcome you into the library on the east side of the building. The entry is opposite the Centre for Languages and Literature (SOL). The main entrance is closed during the renovation.
The reading rooms in the basement are open as usual.
The reading room Wallengren and scholars' reading rooms are open. Otherwise, the entrance and first floors are closed.
On the third floor are:
- the information desk,
- pickup shelf for requested books and self-service machine,
- books and journals,
- search computers,
- printer and
- newspaper computer.
