Orga meeting for the UB demo
“No light at the end of the tunnel yet…” is the title of a post by @ubstuttgart from 22.03.2022. How apt this formulation was became apparent at the latest recently, when the UB staff had to get out their headlamps and the reading room was closed again.
In July, a small demonstration took place where students at the University of Stuttgart demanded better funding for the library, as some literature was cancelled and no longer purchased due to cutbacks.
The effects on studies often become noticeable here at the latest when writing term papers and theses. The fact that the UB at the Stadtmitte location has now had to close the reading room again and that it is not clear how exactly the UB will be adequately replaced in the coming years is the last straw.
For this reason, we are now planning a big demonstration to take place at the end of October. The first orga meeting for this demo will take place on 27 September from 6pm in room M 17.11 on the Campus Stadtmitte. You are cordially invited – registration and previous experience are not necessary!
