Juridicum

The Juridicum, a decentralised library of the State and University Library Bremen, provides the University of Bremen, and in particular the Faculty of Law, with legal literature. It offers a large number of printed and electronic publications and information in the fields of German, European and international law.

The restrictions caused by the Corona pandemic have also affected the Juridicum. An adapted concept has been developed in order to continue providing you with services in the current situation. The following video contains an overview of the most important information on our current emergency services.

The most important information on the services offered by the Juridicum, and how to use them, can be found on this page. In addition, the SuUB homepage offers a FAQ page where you can find information on questions of access, places of learning and special lending services:
