#GIVEBOOKSASECONDCHANCE – Books (to) give away

We need more space! In order to make room for something new, we have to keep sorting out books and other materials. These also include well-preserved volumes - of course far too good to discard.

That's why you can take these books with you free of charge. We warmly invite you to browse through our shelf and look forward to one or two books finding a new home with you.

Where? Shelf in the entrance area of ​​the library

We offer five rooms with space for up to eight people to work on collaborative projects. There you can study and discuss your subjects undisturbed. You are also welcome to use the whiteboards there.
