The University of Luxembourg has announced that it will be extending the opening hours of its library, the Luxembourg Learning Centre (LLC) at the start of the new academic year; the LLC will also be open on Saturdays.

The LLC is an open facility that is accessible free of charge, Monday to Friday from 08:00 to 22:00, as well as on Saturdays from 08:00 to 17:00 (starting from Saturday 14 September 2019).

In addition to providing members with access to a collection of nearly one million publications and periodicals, both in paper and digital formats, the LLC offers a range of services from standard lending of books and computers, to consultation of magazines and journals and specialised services, such as documentary research assistance, training and services dedicated to digital- and IT skills development. The LLC also contributes to the dissemination and promotion of the University of Luxembourg’s dissertations and publications.

Marie-Pierre Pausch, Director of the LLC, commented: “By extending its opening hours, the LLC will be able to better meet the needs of a growing community comprising close to 6,500 students and the entire scientific community of Luxembourg. Our strategy of openness will strengthen the LLC’s ability to fulfil its mission of support for teaching and research, while at the same time being a highly attractive space within an evolving university campus".
