Towards a sustainable University Library
From July 2025 to March 2026, various major renovations will take place in the University Library. Both the transparent domes, the skylight between both halls and the installations for air treatment and heating will be replaced. This will allow the University Library to be cooled and heated more sustainably in the future.
These activities will have impact for users of our building. The examination periods will be taken into account as much as possible.
