The library of the SRH University of Applied Science – a competent partner in the jungle of information
Students have to do research on a regular basis but sometimes get lost in the jungle of information. The library of the SRH University of Applied Sciences supports students during literature research.
Special emphasis is placed on the improvement of students’ information literacy. This implies extensive training in the use of high-quality research instruments so as to enable students to use those techniques efficiently and independently throughout their studies. Also, the selection of media is built on quality.
Currently there are 2.500 media units in library stock, which is continuously expanded by accession. This involves specific literature according to the curriculum. In addition to books, newspapers, printed and electronic periodicals, as well as databases (e.g. DFG national licences) are provided.
The quiet atmosphere of the library provides students with a pleasant learning environment. Reading places, as well as workplaces with access to the Internet are available. Optional connections for notebooks with access to the university network are offered.
The Technical University Berlin – A Strong Partner in Information Services
TU central library in Fasanenstraße
The cooperation agreement between the SRH University of Applied Sciences and the Technical University Berlin was established in September 2008. Through this, the shared use of TU-libraries for SRH students became possible. Except for the specific textbook collection, all media and advisory services are free to use.
Special emphasis is put on the access to an impressive number of specialised databases. Every SRH student receives a free library card at the TU central library. Besides the central library in the Fasanenstraße, the most important library is the technical library for economics, law and statistics (WiWiDok) located in the main building of the TU. Both libraries can be reached by foot from the SRH University of Applied Science.
In regular intervals, interactive trainings on the use of the library and on the handling of the TU-online catalogue are offered in the central library. Such helpful offers are part of the standard training at the beginning of the semester.
