University Library Utrecht Science Park closed during holidays, library City Centre open

Between Monday 23 December and Sunday 5 January the University Library USP is closed. Because of the low number of visitors during the Christmas period, it is not cost-effective to keep the building open. In this way we make a contribution to the sustainability goals of Utrecht University.

What does this mean for users of the library?

  • No study spaces available in USP library
  • No pick up of library materials in USP library
  • Requests from other libraries (Interlibrary Loan) will not be processed
  • The department of Special Collections and the Map Room are closed
  • The Do-it-yourself studio of Educate-it is not available
