Everything about loans
The DMMH library is a public library. This means that you can borrow from our collections even as a non-student, with some restrictions. External patrons can't borrow curriculum books, fiction or children's books from our collection.

Reading- and working spaces
We have multiple areas in the library and our reading hall where you can sit and study alone or in groups. We have a quiet reading hall in the loft above the library, two rooms for group work, and a general workspace in the children's book area.
The quiet reading hall above the library does not allow for discussion or other talking that disrupts others. Your mobile must be in silent mode, and your laptop or device must be in silent mode. Please be mindful of your fellow students.
The two rooms above the library can be booked in TimeEdit.
The reading hall offers multiple sitting groups. This space can be used as a group or individually. This is not a quiet space, so you may experience more discussion and noise.
Requesting books
Any books that are available on the shelf can't be requested.
You can place a hold request on books that are not available, and will be placed in queue. You can place a request by logging into Oria.
Booking rooms (TimeEdit)
The library offers two rooms with space for up to 6 people.
These can be booked in TimeEdit, room 217a and 217b.
Online/off campus students
If you live far away from DMMH and are a student, the library offers sending books and articles to you in the mail. Please contact the library for more information.
