RELOCATION OF THE LIBRARY
In a few weeks, the library will say goodbye to the 4th floor of the workshop building and move to Gartenstraße 9 (ground floor). The last day of opening in the workshop building is Friday, 29 September 2023. After that the library will be closed!
Between 2 – 27 October, preparations for the move and the actual move will take place. The soft opening is scheduled for 23 October 2023 . If you still need literature, hurry now. As a reward, there are extra long loan periods!
The library of the Muthesius Kunsthochschule
The library of the Muthesius University is located on the 4th floor of the workshop building. It is still being set up. At the moment, the special librabry contains 38,000 media, 95 current magazins and 22,000 slides based on the five focal points: Architecture, Communication Design, Industrial Design, Photography and Fine Arts. Its book catalogue is completely digital and accessible online via the OPAC Catalogue.

Research
In addition to the OPAC catalog, which provides access to all academic libraries in Schleswig-Holstein, there are other options and starting points for your own subject-specific research.
Further research options are offered by the Statistics Library database: https://de.statista.com/.
You can find information about the handling of Statista here: https://dbis.uni-regensburg.de/frontdoor.php?titel_id=9808
Terms of use
Beyond the circle of university members, everyone who has a place in Schleswig-Holstein as their first place of residence on their ID card receives a library card from us. With a few exceptions, all of the library’s holdings are available for loan. The regular loan period is 3 weeks. Periodicals are only lent overnight or over the weekend.
User service
Copiers are distributed throughout the workshop building, but there are none on the 4th floor in our library. Copy cards for these machines are available in the new administration building at the IT administration. A high quality scanner is available in the library for scanning media. It may be used free of charge – don’t forget your USB stick! In addition, publications of the Muthesius Academy of Fine Arts can be purchased from us.
