FAQ CoVid 19

  • Does the library (Stabi) already have normal opening hours again?

    • No. At the moment most of the building is largely open to the public again. However, the conditions of use are still restricted. The legal basis is the Ordinance on Containing the Spread of the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 in the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg.

      Opening hours: Mon-Fri from 12 a.m.-6 p.m.

      • Admission requirement is a valid library card.
      • The opening serves to borrow items from the self-service area, the textbook collection and to pick up ordered or reserved media.
      • Book return is also possible - for this purpose additional times Mon-Fri from 10 a.m. -8 p.m. have been arranged.
      • Learning/working is possible again: in the reading room with reservation  of a time slot or without reservation in the Information Centre, the group work area and the MediaLab.
        (Limited space, access only as long as baskets are available)
      • All details about the opening and the services offered can be found in the blog.

      Still excluded from the service:

      • PC workstations
      • Printing/copying (return of the CopyCards at the machine in the foyer is possible)
  • How can I use the Stabi digitally?

    • Members of the UHH, i.e. staff and students, can use full-text access via the VPN Client directly in the campus network. Alternatively, it is possible to log in with a valid library card without a VPN client.


      For our other users who do not have remote access, we offer a virtual walk-in service: If you have a valid library card or an email account of a state university or of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, you can order individual ebooks or e-articles via our e-media delivery service.

      Simply check in the Catalogueplus whether we have licensed the e-resource you are looking for and fill in the form.

  • Which workstations / technical equipment are available?

      • Individual workstations for learning and exam preparation:

        • 100 with reservation of a time slot in the reading room
        • 100 without reservation in the Information Centre, group work area, MediaLab

      • Research PC

        • 1 in the reading room (reservation for use of reading room necessary)

  • How can I use other libraries at Universität Hamburg?

    • Please note that in the course of CoVid-19 containment, access to buildings of the University of Hamburg is currently only possible for members of the University. The on-site services of the departmental libraries are therefore only available to students and staff of the University.
      Many department libraries participate in our Campus Delivery Service. Thereby students and faculty can order articles and single book chapters at the usual conditions.

      Most of the departmental libraries are currently expanding their services in close cooperation with the SUB and the University's Occupational Safety Staff Unit.
      We have compiled the type and scope of the respective services in a current overview.
      Since most of the buildings are only accessible to students and staff of the UHH and the UKE, the return of books borrowed in the departmental libraries will be possible for external users centrally in the Stabi from 12.5.2020. Please note: it is not possible to reborrow books here!

       

  • My library card has to be renewed soon. Can you renew it online?

    • Yes and no.

      All library cards whose validity ended between 13.3. and 30.4.2020 were automatically renewed for another 60 days. If your ID card has already expired before 13.3.2020, please send an email to ausleihzentrum@sub.uni-hamburg.de

    • Admission for use of the reading room is separate from that for borrowing and return. Only users with a library card and reservation are admitted. Please have your reservation confirmation - preferably printed - and your valid library card ready.

  • I am a staff member of UHH and urgently need printed literature from the Stabi

    • Staff members of Hamburg University can order articles and excerpts from books via the Campus Delivery Service and have them delivered to their stored email address. Please note deliveries from the storage library are possible from 1 May. As it is not possible to deliver regularly from all participating specialist libraries, delays in delivery may therefore occur. Lendable books from the holdings of the SUB can also be ordered by staff of Hamburg University via the Campus Delivery Service and delivered to the University office address. In this case, please enter the term "Lending" in the "Pages" field. Before ordering, please make sure that the postal University office address in your user account is correct and complete. Otherwise, please contact us once before ordering: ausleihzentrum@sub.uni-hamburg.de

      Disadvantage:
      Not all libraries participate, therefore delivery is restricted.
      Fee:
      During emergency operation we suspend the interlibrary loan fee. If you already have interlibrary loan coupons, you can use them for your orders unlimitedly. If you do not yet have interlibrary loan coupons, please contact us briefly at fernleihe@sub.uni-hamburg.de so that we can mail you the authentication data you need for interlibrary loan requests.
