Law
All online services are available without restrictions. We recommend that all members and students of the university primarily use our wide range of e-books, e-journals and databases.
In the departmental library you will find the borrowable media of the law textbook collection as well as a non-lending reference collection of special legal literature.
The media of the textbook collection can be identified by the call number "80/", the media of the law reference collection by the call number "250/".
Against the background of the spread of the coronavirus, Würzburg University Library has implemented the specifications of the Bavarian State Ministry of Science and Art to restrict public access and service offerings. In the context of the current exceptional situation, we ask for your understanding for these measures.

- The majority of the learning workstations are intended exclusively for students of the Faculty of Law because of the homework and seminar papers currently being written, but a small contingent is also available for students of all faculties so that they can also access the holdings as part of their final theses.

- Even without a learning workstation, you can still enter the TB with a short stay ticket for scanning/copying and borrowing/returning (see point B.1 above).
In view of the large number of currently ongoing studies and term papers, we ask our external users for their understanding that we are not able to offer them jobs at present.
The use of the learning workstations is only permitted after prior reservation. You are allowed to book one of the offered periods per opening day. Wearing an FFP2 mask is obligatory for visitors to the library. You must also keep the FFP2 mask on at the learning workstations.
