Access to the library

For organisational and security reasons, the access to the library is ONLY ALLOWED after registration to Affluences (available in the major app stores as well as and on the web) and consequent reservation of both entry and seat  in the library.

 

Members of affiliated universities - i.e. of universities that have subscribed a specific agreement with the University of Turin on the library services - can access the library by complying with the following prescriptions:

 

  • Book their entry through Affluences
    1. After logging in, search for the "Norberto Bobbio" library and select it.
    2. Choose one of the seats labelled as "Atenei Piemonte e VDA" (Universities of Piedmont and Valle d'Aosta).
    3. The system will send an email for CONFIRMATION at the address provided by the user (please, use institutional email addresses only). On their first booking users will have to CONFIRM it within two hours from receiving the confirmation email. After the first access, by flagging the "Ricordati di me" option users can avoid further requests for confirmation.
  • By reservation, users are requested to specify the day and time, and the desired duration of their stay, as well as the section of the library where they intend to sit.  

 

NOTE: Reservation is personal and can only be done by the very user who will occupy the seat in the library.

 

After entering the library:

  • VALIDATE their presence by scanning the QR-CODE by the entrance (through the App Affluences or any QR-code Reader)
    (NOTE; Reservations NOT VALIDATED within 1 hour from the beginning of the chosen time period will be automatically cancelled)
  • occupy EXCLUSIVELY seats/workstations in the section of the library that they have chosen by reservation
  • CANCEL their reservation, if unable to come to the library by day and time of reservation, so to allow other users to access the library
    (a specific button for cancellation is enclosed in the confirmation email sent by system after each booking)
  • (in order to avail themselves of the LOAN SERVICE) prove their identity and belonging to an affiliated University.
  • If they need to EXTEND their STAY, make a NEW RESERVATION
