Library
The library offers the institution's students and tutors the use of its reading room (standard literature, reference material), an internet access point, photocopying facilities, interlibrary loans, as well as the acquisition of loan materials. The library's musicology department has become a well-equipped specialist library in the short period since the foundation of the Department of Musicology Weimar-Jena in 1989/90.
The library's holdings are spread out over numerous locations. In the catalogue, you will also find titles without location, or with the location 'Großformat' or 'Magazin'; these can be found in the main library.
The same is true of titles held in the reading room, though these can be used only in the library. Items with the location 'Teilbibliothek Musikwissenschaft, Hochschulzentrum am Horn' are reference works which, in some circumstances, may be available for lending over the weekend.
