Information for members of the university (students/staff)

The student card is also the library card. The accounts for students are automatically imported from the University’s central administration system into the library system. No additional application is necessary. - Staff members:
The staff account is automatically imported into the library system from the university’s central administration system. If you have a service card for staff, this also serves as a library card. An additional application is not necessary.
