Sala Centrale. Law and Humanities Library

Due to works taking place in the Cortile d'Onore at Via Festa del Perdono 7, the following facilities will be CLOSED on Tuesday 21 July and Wednesday 22 July:

• The Library of Ancient Studies and Modern Philology (SAFM).
• The following reading rooms of the Library of Law and Humanities (BSGU): Sala centrale and Sala Common Law. As a result, all services provided in these two reading rooms will be suspended during the closure period.

Depending on the progress of the works, additional closure days may be required. Further updates will be published as they become available.

Starting from Wednesday 13 May, some collections affected by the installation works for the new compact shelving in the Sala Centrale storage have become accessible again for consultation and loan in the Sala del Settecento of the Law and Humanities Library. 

These consist of a selection of sections previously held in the Sala Centrale storage and now relocated to the Sala del Settecento in open stacks. Availability can be checked in the Minerva catalogue to verify their location. Further updates on the availability of these collections will be published on this page.

Sottocrociera collections (journals and books) are available for loan and consultation, as follows:

• Journals: available for consultation in the Sala Centrale, upon request via email to info.bsgu@unimi.it; for organisational purposes, please submit requests at least one day in advance and await email confirmation before visiting the reading room.
• Some books: may be borrowed via the Minerva catalogue, while others may be consulted in the same way as journals.

Please note that all journals with titles from BUL to IL PENSIERO will still not be available. 

More information on the reopening date of the Sala Sottocrociera and the related services will be communicated on this page as soon as possible. We apologise for the inconvenience.

Due to maintenance work, the journals in the Diritto Pubblico section (call number 5G.PER) are unavailable for consultation.
