Clock Discs for Break Times
Do you want to take a break and leave the group room temporarily? No problem, as long as you are not away for more than 60 minutes and use a clock disc to indicate your break time. You can find the clock discs in collection containers in all branch libraries. They can be returned at the exit.
Here's how it works:
- Place the set clock disc on your study desk or in your group 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.
The University Library assumes no liability for personal items left unattended.
