From 18 May 2020, we will reopen our reading rooms as a learning space for TUM members, subject to restrictions. We offer individual study desks in our branch libraries, which you must reserve online in advance.
In order to protect your and our health, a number of restrictions are in place, which follow the strict regulations of the state government and the university administration.
Advance Reservation and Safeguard Measures
Before you visit our libraries, please register via our website, e.g. to be able to trace chains of infection if necessary. We offer two booking periods, one in the morning and one in the afternoon/evening. In order to guarantee a safe minimum distance, only a limited number of study desks are available in each branch library.
During your stay in publicly accessible areas you must wear a mouth-and-nose cover at all times. Contactless dispensers with disinfectant are also available.
Regulations and Restrictions
For your library visit the Terms of Use for the University Library during the Corona Pandemic apply in addition to existing library regulations and house rules. Please note the following rules:
- Only TUM students and staff are entitled to reserve study desks. For external library users learning space at the library is currently not accessible.
- With regard to limited places available, we ask you to reserve not more than three time slots per week out of considerateness for your fellow TUM members. In case of overbooking we reserve the right to cancel all of your reservations.
- Please arrive at the library entrance only a short time before your confirmed reservation period, keep at least 1.5 metres distance from other people and wear a mouth-and-nose cover in the correct way.
- When entering the library, please present your StudenCard or PersonalCard as well as the e-mail confirmation of your reservation (if applicable).
