The space with separate areas of 200 m², which has been created in cooperation with students of the University of Lodz, will be open 12 hours a day, 6 days a week. The zone is equipped with workstations for individual and group learning, lockable rooms for team work with the possibility of remote booking, as well as a kitchenette and places to relax – comfortable sets of pouffes, a sofa and even... stationary bikes, thanks to which you can charge your phone or a laptop. Finally, it is a place where you will find a rich collection of comic books and board games.
The entire investment was financed from the central funds of the University of Lodz. It cost PLN 600,000. We feel convinced that the zone will quickly become one of the important and attractive points on the map of the university campus, as well as a place where students, but also the entire academic community will find good conditions to work and relax. In other words, all users of the new space will feel at home here!
– said during the opening Tomasz Piestrzyński, Director of the University of Lodz Library.
Large-format photos of the University of Lodz Library, which were taken in the 1960s by Janisław Baranowski – a long-time employee of the University of Lodz constitute an important element of the Student Zone's decor.
