Literature not available at the Göttingen State and University Library can be ordered by way of inter-library loan or document delivery services.

The Department of Medical Statistics of the UMG will advise you on biometric questions within these hours in the rooms of the Medical Library.

The library staff will advise you on all matters relating to library use and are also available to answer library-specific questions during opening hours without making an appointment: Literature and subject research, user account management, placing inter-library loan orders, database research, electronic library, etc.

You would like to order borrowable items from the Central Library's stacks to the Medical Library? Use GöDiscovery and the Göttingen University Catalogue with the option of ordering into the BBM.
