Book a seat or room

With the reservation tool you can reserve a study place or a group room at these locations:

  • Medical Library - seats with/without computer &  group rooms

  • Silent Study Areas - only seats without computer

Seats without reservation

There are more than 50 seats for which no reservation is required. These can be recognized by the sticker on the table 'No reservation necessary'.

There is also a library location on Hanzeplein, but this is only accessible to UMCG employees with a UMCG card and access rights.
