Loan Service Reopening on Monday!

The Library’s loan desk will reopen for the Graduate Institute community only (students, staff and researchers) on Monday, 11 May.

The loan desk will be accessible from Monday to Friday, 09:00-17:00. Your Graduate Institute student/staff card will be required to enter the building.

To borrow documents, you must first reserve them by using our new form. They will be stored for pickup at the loan desk on the next working day.

The interlibrary loan service will also reopen with limited service (depending on ILL activity in partner libraries).

The reading room remains closed, and access to the printers/copiers is impossible. If you have a personal locker in the Library, you will be allowed to access it to retrieve your items.

Goodbye, Plastic Bags!

To improve its environmental impact, the Library has now stopped distributing single-use plastic bags. If you didn’t bring your own, you can instead purchase a reusable bag – charcoal grey & featuring the Graduate Institute logo – for CHF 3.- at the loan desk.

Happy New Year

The Library wishes you a great 2020!

We will welcome you back on January 6 at 08:00.
