The Library is open to students and employees of LMU as well as of external research institutions in South Asian Studies. A user list is kept by the supervisor on duty. Thus it is necessary to sign in and out with the supervisory staff when entering and leaving the library. Access authorisation (such as your student ID) must be shown on request.
In principle, the Institute Library is a reference library; yet books may be borrowed for a period of up to four weeks. A loan slip must be filled out for each book and handed in to the library supervisor. Books in bad physical condition cannot be borrowed; photocopying such books is only permitted with the prior consent of the library supervisor. Books from the "New Acquisitions" section and books from the semester collections reserved for specific classes (Semesterapparate) may also not be borrowed.
You will soon be able to find the detailed library regulations here (note: New version to come).
