The winter break is here: what adaptations are planned for services, libraries and study rooms?
Services on vacation
- Book orders and digitization requests: due to the closure of some libraries and the book store from December 24 to January 4, it will not be possible to obtain documents or digitizations during this period. All the requests sent to the book store must be sent by December 22 at 12 p.m.

Library opening hours
We would like to remind you that, until January 23, library study is reserved for ULiège and CHU de Liège members, due to overcrowding during the cramming period.
External students can still benefit from our resources and services (loans, returns, reservations, consultation of special documents, etc.) and remain welcome for the rest of the year.
In some libraries, it is also essential to book your seat online.
