... your work

Please make use of our facilities for your scientific work:

In the whole Library WLAN can be accessed (how to set up your WLAN/eduroam you can learn at: Intranet > Technik und Sicherheit > Rechenzentrum). As the Internet connections were changed by the IT we now have WLAN vouchers for guests that are valid for 8 hours (staff members can use their personal login data, the same as for PC and email). Guests that want to use WLAN have to contact us at the information desk and sign for using it.

To set up eduroam/ WLAN on your device(s) please follow the guides provided in Intranet by the IT-Team (login with your personal PC data) or use adapted print guides in our carrels.

For individual work or work in pairs or meetings you can use our carrels, four of them are equipped with PCs and LAN connection. As guest at HZI campus you have to contact us to get the login details for the internet (see above - Voucher). Two PCs in the 2 front cabins are available for staff members.

The glass doors of the carrels carry quotes from Arno Schmidt's work "Zettel's Traum" - why the works of Arno Schmidt are worth to read we try to show you here.
