Dear Students!
Problems and complaints about animals brought into the library have increased in the past, and for this reason we have created a rule that clearly and precisely defines the relationship between certain spaces in the library and the animals.
Most of the complaints about the presence of animals in the library were legitimate remarks about hygiene, behavioral problems (barking, growling, sitting on furniture, etc.) or the increasing noise of the former quiet learning spaces.
In accordance with the above-mentioned, from December 3, 2021, the library’s reading and learning spaces will be divided into two separate units:
- Building D – including the reading room, the group room, the foyers, corridors and the reception area on the ground floor – is not accessible to animals
- Equus Study Room in building D, however, is an animal-friendly place.
Please keep the above rules when visiting the library so that each student can find a suitable, supportive library environment for them.
We would like to support the operation of Equus Study Room as an animal-friendly place with rules to help us live together which will soon be placed in the room.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
