You can study quietly
Many students use the library as a place to study. We expect everyone to respect the library's peace and quiet.
Because demand often exceeds supply, work and study areas in the library are reserved for Hasselt University students (and members of the association).
You can do group work
UHasselt students have the possibility to use 10 rooms for group work: 6 open group work rooms (that are freely accessible) and 4 closed group work rooms (that need to be booked). Quiet conversation is allowed in these areas.
The open group work rooms have 6 seats. The closed group work rooms have 8 chairs as well as a TV screen and a flipchart.
You can print, copy and scan
Students, members of staff and emeriti can print, copy and scan using their student or staff card (cf. provide your card with the required balance via PingPing!).
External readers (without library card) are currently not able to use these facilities.
You can make use of PCs and/or browse the UHasselt network on your laptop/tablet
Visitors can make free use of the desktops at hand in the library. You can also log in with your own device on the UHasselt wireless network. External readers can ask a wifi guest account via wifi.uhasselt.be; this account is available for 24 hours.
In the reading rooms of the university library the Eduroam network is also accessible. Eduroam is an international collaboration between educational institutes and enables students, members of staff and emeriti of the associated institutes to register at another associated institute using their own user names and passwords. All Flemish universities are associated to Eduroam. On the Eduroam website a full overview of member universities and university colleges can be found.
Loan
Students and external readers may borrow four books per visit, for a period of four weeks.
Members of staff and emeriti at Hasselt University may borrow more than four books and enjoy a long-term loan allowance (i.e. until September 15).
At My library you can always check which books you have borrowed.
Return
Readers are required to timely return their books at the library desk. Those who are late will be excluded from our loan services for two weeks. After the third reminder the borrower will receive an invoice for reminder charges and an invoice for the replacement of the books on loan.
Renew
Loans can be renewed (if no reservations have been made). You can renew online (twice) via My library.
Reserve
It is possible to reserve documents/books through My library.
Items that are borrowed long-term (to members of staff or emeriti) must be returned as soon as possible when reserved by another reader.
Interlibrary loan
Items that are not available in the library or cannot be accessed electronically can be requested at another library. More information on procedure and rates.
