Library Services

The library material is available to students, Erasmus students, University’s teaching staff, visiting professors, University staff, staff from partner institutions and external users who have an interest in the collections.

Wherever possible, the collections are on open shelves: books, journals and other materials located in the reading rooms or in other rooms, that can be accessed directly by users.


To access materials located in reserved reading rooms or on closed stacks, readers must submit a request to the library staff: they are normally retrieved at the time of request, except when the starage area is located off-site or when the organization of individual libraries does not allow for this.

The reading room is primarily intended for the use of the collections and services. Access to the reading room for the purpose of study using personal materials is permitted on a seat availability basis, as verified by library staff.
You have to reserve a seat through our web portal or mobile app “lezioniUnimi”.

Our libraries make their services available in compliance with Covid-19 safety measures.
Please note that the Covid-19 certificate (“green pass”) is required to enter libraries. Comply with all safety rules, e.g. sanitize your hands and wear a face mask FFP2 covering your nose and mouth.
