The university library's research supporting services offer researchers help in all matters of digital research. Our specialised teams for digital humanities, research data management, Open Access, and digital collections provide comprehensive consultation, digital tools and infrastructures. Their common goal is to accompany your research process as best as possible.

Preparation and planning
Thorough planning is the foundation of successful research. We support you in modelling and organising your research processes, in detailing data management plans, selecting suitable archiving and publication options (including financing), as well as in the use of digital resources.
