Library introductions, which will take place online in the winter semester 2021/22, will help you find your way around the library. UB employees will show you how to find and borrow literature and will give advice on the use of electronic resources. For many degree programs, library introductions are already included and do not have to be booked separately. If no library event is planned for your subject during the introductory weeks, you are welcome to register for a course.
