RUB Bib

Your digital access to the RUB libraries

With the app of the Ruhr-University library you can organize your everyday library life. It completely replaces your previous library card.

You can use the app to authenticate yourself at the self-checkout machines or at the service counters in order to borrow media or use other services. If you have to pay a fee, you will also need the app to authenticate yourself at the automatic pay station. With the RUB Bib app you always have a complete overview of your library account. You can view your loans, as well as all fees incurred. You can also manage your reservations in the app. With the RUB-Bib-App you also have the entire range of courses and events offered by the University Library with you at all times and everywhere and you can book courses on various topics, such as compact basic courses on the university library, research training or introductory courses for various literature management programs.
