Getting a library card and PIN
Students at CBS are automatically registered in the library system and can log in using their CBS username and password. To check out items from the self-service terminals, however, you need a PIN. To create a PIN, simply log into Libsearch and go to "Personal Details" and "Update PIN and Login Credentials" and enter a four-digit PIN.
Curriculum - reading lists
The Course Collection on the ground floor of the Solbjerg Plads library contains one copy of all the books listed on the various programme curricula. The books are not loanable but can be used anywhere in the library. A lot of the curricular materials are web-based and can be downloaded and read on your computer. You can find the lists on CBS Canvas and www.academicbooks.dk
When you know what you need - look it up in Libsearch
