Lockers
There are many lockers in the reading room, both outside in the hallway and in the PC room. These are reserved for master's students at ILN who use the reading room regularly.
Each semester, we send out an online form where you can apply for a locker. The first-come, first-served principle applies here. A locker that is not used may, after one warning by e-mail, be given to other students who wish to use it. At the end of the semester, all lockers must be emptied, and there will be a new round of applications at the start of the next semester.
Lockers that are not registered may be clipped open. To ensure that you receive important information, we will add you to the reading room's email list.
