Lockers

Jackets and bags may be brought into all ULB locations. One exception is the Research Reading Room. If you do not wish to take your belongings into the library, you are welcome to use one of our cloakroom lockers. Lockers are available if you wish to leave any work materials.

Lockers for storing work materials are available at all three ULB locations. Keys are issued at the respective service and information desk.

The Conditions of Use of the University and State Library Darmstadt (opens in new tab) apply.

ULB Stadtmitte has a total of more than 700 cloakroom lockers in the basement, ULB Schloss has over 100 in the foyer and ULB Lichtwiese has over 600 in the foyer, which are you welcome to use free of charge with your Athene or ULB card while you are in the library. The period of use is up to 12 hours in ULB Stadtmitte as well as ULB Lichtwiese, and up to 8 hours in ULB Schloss

Locking and unlocking with your card

The locks can be locked and unlocked with your Athene or ULB card. A card can only lock one locker at a time.

Do not lock the locker again once you have removed your personal items.

Activating the cards to use the cloakroom lockers

Before using a locker, the locking function must be activated for your card. This is done by touching the card to the terminal at the first row of lockers.

Forgotten your locker number?

Place the card on the terminal to get your locker number.

Period of use

A locker may be used for a maximum of 12 hours in ULB Stadtmitte and ULB Lichtwiese, and for a maximum of 8 hours in ULB Schloss.

After that time it will remain locked. In order to unlock the locker again, you will have to pay a fee of 3 euros. Use your Athene or ULB card to have the amount debited at the late fees machine. The card will then be activated again.

Please do not leave any valuables in the lockers. ULB will accept no liability for them.
