The play area located in the university library offers another space for parents to relax with their children. 

Students and employees with children are also welcome to loan out a portable toy box or DVD player if they need to entertain their kids while completing their tasks on campus. Please note that children must remain under their parent's supervision while spending time on campus.

The portable toy boxes are suitcases filled with books, toys for various ages, CDs, drawing supplies, and more, and can be wheeled to your work station or even to lectures or seminars – though we'd ask you to please arrange this with your instructor in advance! The DVD player comes with headphones as well as various educational and entertainment DVDs for different ages. 

Two toy boxes and the DVD player are currently available to be loaned out during the university library's regular opening hours.

Changing Room

A changing table is available in the Campus Building. It's located downstairs in the disabled toilets and can be reached using the elevator.
