Library budget 2027: we are forced to cut down heavily
The preliminary business plan 2027 shows more considerable cutbacks to the library budget, leading to severe reductions in our university's information supply. This affects databases the same as books and peridocals, both printed and electronic. We are forced to strike a range of research journals as well as a daily newspapers and magazines from our list of services. Publication funding is, unfortunately, not exempt: there will be no funding for Open Access e-books outside of running DFG projects. As of Sep 24th 2026 it's not yet clear if funding will also have to be reduced for articles.
