You can use book scanners for free at LUL. High quality scans can be produced and saved on a flash drive or sent to your phone. The scanners are book friendly, environmentally friendly, quiet and low-emission.

At each branch of Leipzig University Library copiers, with the option to print from flash drives, are available. This service is offered by Customized University Services GmbH
