As a student at the FU Berlin, you have access to the library system of the FU Berlin, which comprises the holdings of 15 specialized libraries and a total of about 8 million media units. You also have access to numerous e-books and e-journals.
The nearest libraries for students of the Institute of Sociology are the Social Science Libraries at Garystraße 55 and Ihnestraße 21, as well as the University Library at Garystraße 39.
To search for books, it is worthwhile to first search for them online with the portal Primo. Here you can access some media directly in digital form, others only in analog form. For some you have to go to the library, others you can order from a library of your choice. You can find more information about this here. The libraries also offer working spaces for you to work in.
Besides libraries of the FU Berlin there are many other libraries in Berlin, e.g. the Grimm Zentrum, the Staatsbibliothek and many others.
To borrow media from the FU libraries, students can use their Campus Card, which was already described in Chapter I.4
