Membership

Membership or authorisation to use the University Library is set for a defined period of time to ensure that personal data is only stored for as long as necessary.

• University members: as long as you are employed or enrolled at the University, the membership is automatically extended by one year at a time.
• Regional users: as long as the library account is actively used, the membership is also renewed for another year. Active use is defined as:
  • borrowing items via the self-service devices
  • logging into the KARLA user account
  • logging in to the computers in the library
  • the use of e-media items
  • using the Onleihe

You can find out which login details to use for each service here under ‘Password’.
