Do you need to take a short break or want to refill your water bottle? No problem, as long as you are away for no more than 60 minutes and use a clock disc to indicate your break time. Those who frequent the Branch Library Main Campus regularly are familiar with our break rules. Starting 15 January 2024, clock discs for breaks will also be available in all other branch libraries.
Using a clock disc to indicate your break times is mandatory at all branch libraries in group study rooms and on all study desks, whether they are reserved or freely available.
Here's how it works:
- Place the set clock disc on your study desk or in your group study room.
- Do not exceed the maximum allowed break time of 60 minutes, as otherwise, other library visitors may move your belongings aside and use the space.
- Tables and rooms without a clock disc may also be reassigned.
You can find the clock discs in collection containers at all branch libraries. They can be returned at the exit. The University Library assumes no liability for personal items left unattended.
