Change in Membership Conditions – Maastricht City Library

As of January 1, the membership conditions of the Maastricht City Library have been updated. This means that the previous arrangement—under which all Zuyd students and staff could become members free of charge—has been discontinued.

Zuyd students and staff can still make use of the library’s services.

  • Students up to and including 27 years of age can continue to enjoy free Youth membership.
  • Teachers and staff members can make use of a Basic membership.
    This Basic membership is free, but you do pay a registration fee and borrowing fees.

For current rates and additional options, please take a look at the Maastricht City Library website.

Generative AI and Literature Research

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) tools have gained enormous popularity. At the same time, Zuyd Library has noticed that the technology raises many questions among both students and teachers. One of the questions you might ask yourself is: at what point during your literature research do you use the AI tool? And when should you avoid it?

To support education in the application of AI in literature research, the library has developed an online tutorial titled 'Generative AI and Literature Research.' This is a current and valuable addition to the library's Information Skills curriculum.
