The Helmholtzstraße library is open continuously from Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. It will also be closed from 24 December 2025 to 6 January 2026.

The visitor figures for the changed opening hours will be statistically analysed and will be supplemented by online surveys of our reading room visitors at the beginning of 2026. The aim is to gradually adapt the opening hours to the current demand situation.

This message concerns you if you use the Zoom service of the University of Ulm and your computer is NOT administered by kiz. If you are already using a client in the current version (e.g. >= 6.6.0) or no workplace client at all, or a computer administered by kiz (e.g. in the ZUV area), you can ignore the rest of this message.

Virtually all older Zoom workplace clients have several security issues. We will therefore on Wednesday, 22.10.2025 administratively prevent the use of older versions. You will then need the following minimum client versions:

• Windows  client Version ≥ 6.6.0
• Linux  client Version ≥ 6.6.0
• macOS  client Version ≥ 6.6.0
• iOS  client Version ≥ 6.6.0
• Android  client Version ≥ 6.6.0

How do I determine the version number of my Zoom workplace client?

• Start your Zoom workplace client.
• Click on your profile picture at the top right, then <help> / <About Zoom>
  (if you do not have a profile picture, you will probably see your initials there)

How do I perform the update?

• Start your Zoom workplace client.
• Click on your profile picture at the top right, then <check for updates>
  (if you do not have a profile picture, you will probably see your initials there)

If the menu item <check for updates> does not appear for you, then you have a really old version and please download the latest version of the "Zoom Client for Meetings" from uni-ulm.zoom.us/download.

If you manage your computer yourself, you can configure your Zoom Client for automatic updates: blog.zoom.us/get-automatic-updates-in-the-zoom-client/

As a result, the printing service will only be available to you to a limited extent from 1 June 2025. 
The following products are affected: Brochures, flyers, loose-leaf printing and special orders.

Only reduced conditions can be processed internally for these products.

For larger conditions, please contact external service providers directly.

The respective product-specific maximum print run can be found on the FAQ - Print service page (only accessible internally at Uni) and on the respective order form.

This does not apply to Theses, posters and lamination.

Business cards can no longer be printed in-house. We will create the final print template for you in the university's design, which you can then use to commission external service providers yourself. We do not take on the external printing organization, but can recommend service providers if required.

Further information can be found on our FAQ - Printing Service page (only available internally at the university). 

Please allow sufficient production time for your orders.
