Saxion University of Applied Sciences - Library

At Saxion we value written and digital knowledge. This all comes together in our library on campus.

Saxion Library has three branches: in Enschede, Deventer and Apeldoorn. Every registered student is a member of the library and can borrow material with a valid student card.

Saxion Library is available 24/7 through the website www.saxionbibliotheek.nl. Assistance is offered at the reference desk and through Twitter: @Saxionbieb.

All the available materials can be found this website. The library has access to important databases such as Lexis, Nexis/Krantenbank, Medline, ScienceDirect and EBSCO which can also be used from home.

In the library you will find a reference and lending collection, journals and newspapers. At every lending library, materials can be requested through the catalogue and can be delivered to the desired library. Materials can be picked up at and returned to the circulation desk.

Materials requested from other (library) locations are available at the circulation desk after two working days.

There are rooms available in the library to view and edit AVmaterial.

There are also study rooms and computer workstations available. Computer workstations are available by making a reservation using the computer reservation system.
