Library Study at UU
Utrecht University has two libraries to study and borrow books.
University Library City Centre
The white furnishings and natural light make this a perfect place to concentrate.- By Thomas + 7
- Smaranda : “Despite always being full of students, this library is the only place I can be productive in peace and quiet. Book a seat in advance!”
- Benjamin: “The city centre library is a striking blend of old and new, where modern and classical architecture come together seamlessly. Its halls and rooms hold stories of the past, as we learned in one of our first lectures: the building once served as a residence for one of Napoleon's puppet kings during the French rule in the Netherlands. This history makes the library particularly special, especially for students of the humanities.”
- Thomas : “Even though I am not part of the humanities, I like to study in in the city center. It is specially beautiful and also located just in the heart of the city, so in between studying one can easily go to cafés or just walk around the city.”
University Library Science Park
The University Library is no longer only a building full of books, but also a centre where people meet and exchange knowledge.- By Studentlife Team + 5
- Thomas : “I like the space and quietness of the library. I also enjoy walking up and down the shelves. There are always hidden gems to read.”
- Luiza: “I will forever remember all the “all-nighters” that I’ve pulled in the Science Park Library. It’s my go-to during all the exam weeks.”
- Studentlife Team: “Don’t forget to book your seat during the exam period! Science Park library is students’ favorite place to study so make sure to save your spot.”
