Since the 1st of November there is a new loan procedure within the university library and faculty library. The loan regulation remains the same, only:

·        You will be better informed: reminder mailings will be sent with a different frequency.

·        You can renew books yourself via http://lib.ugent.be , even if the due date has expired.

Rules of thumb:

·        Return your books to the library on time.

·        Your account can be blocked when you’re too late.

Questions about this? Mail ebib@ugent.be or call 09/2643473

In April the renovation of the Technicum and the extension of student restaurant De Brug will be executed. Therefore it is impossible to store bikes there. You can use the bicycle storage of the Vooruit instead.
