Library instruction enhanced with hints of information literacy

Guided library tours
Guided tours through the University Library
take place regularly at the beginning of term or anytime by arrangement.
Introductions how to search information systematically as well as in retrieval strategies in databases (library catalogues, professional article databases and Internet search engines) are available on request.

Services for schools
The TUHH university library as part of the school network of the TUHH offers its holdings and services also to teachers and learners.

  • Special library tours  (in German)
    The Library provides
    two different kinds of guided tours for school classes:
    - A visual and haptic experience (above all, for classes from 10. to 12., but also for younger pupils too), comprising a 30 minutes tour through the main parts of the Library and a brief illustration of its main services.
    -  A 1 hour tour for thirsty for knowledge (class 12., preview of the course of studies), including a target oriented introduction for independent online searching, provided by subject librarians in charge.
