In our comfortable New Work area on the 1st floor, you will not only find an impressive view of the fjord, but also comfortable armchairs and sofas that not only offer comfort, but also power connections and work surfaces. To ensure ergonomic working conditions, we provide height-adjustable desks and standing aids. Modern telephone booths are also available on the 1st floor for undisturbed telephone calls or video conferences. These noise-reducing rooms ensure that important calls or video conferences can be held without distractions. There are also soundproofed seating areas with tables that can accommodate 4 to 6 people and are ideal for group work or intensive discussions. Of course, you can also have a pleasantly quiet time on your own, while other areas are used for lively discussions.
In Kiel, individual workstations are available in the open areas on the first and second floors. On the first floor, there are also additional comfortable places to sit and a table with four monitor workstations where you can connect your own laptop. Our air-conditioned reading room is located on the second floor, where you can work in peace.
To ensure your device is always charged wherever you like to sit, we have power banks available to borrow at the service desk.
In the Creative Space on the first floor, you’ll find height-adjustable desks and a variety of seating options that can be arranged to suit your needs. We provide a whiteboard for creative brainstorming. You can borrow pens for the whiteboard and other technical equipment from the service desk. The room is suitable for both individuals and groups.
Book carts and lockers
Our lockers are located on the ground floor. You can borrow the keys from the service desk. You can decide for yourself whether you need them just for a short lunch break, a whole day or for a longer period (up to 8 weeks).
Do you work at the ZBW regularly and don’t want to bring your work materials with you every day? Why not make use of our free book carts to store your documents conveniently? The carts can be reserved for up to two months at the service desk and are located on the first and second floors.
