In October 2024, the university library established the Digital Humanities Services. We are currently implementing the full service portfolio, but are available for any questions you might have. Should you need support, please contact the the Digital Humanities Officer.

The university library supports scholars and researchers of the Carl von Ossietzky University in their research data management by operating the institutional research data repository DARE and by offering consultancy (e.g. on metadata, on how to find an adequate subject repository) as well as with training courses on research data management.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is currently having a major impact on the information society. Online tools such as ChatGPT make it possible to create or modify almost any text, image, piece of music or video. Tools based on generative AI are being used in software development by creating programme code on instruction or checking its quality. The university library is preparing a service to support our patrons in using and dealing with AI.

The University Bibliography continuously records and lists the details of publications by academics employed at the University in the online catalogue. The bibliotgraphy includes all publications published during membership of the University.
