The University Library Erlangen-Nürnberg is introducing a new learning place and room reservation system. In addition to the reservation areas in the WSZB, TNZB, and reading room 3 of the Main Library, it is now possible to book group study areas in reading rooms 5 and 7 of the Main Library.

Thanks to the support of the Universitätsbund Erlangen-Nürnberg the University Library was able to add a work by Georg Wolfgang Knorr to its collection. The two-volume work “Delices de la Nature,” printed in Nuremberg in 1779, features 91 hand-colored copperplate engravings of birds, shells, etc.
