history

In 1997 it was connected to the German interlibrary loan system, and in 2008 RFID accounting was introduced. In 2008, the Neu-Ulm University of Applied Sciences and with it the library moved to the new building on Wileystraße.
In 2010, the library took part in the BIX library ranking and won the title of second best German and best Bavarian university library .
In 2018, the Faculty of Health Management, previously located in Steubenstrasse, moved into a new building in Wileystrasse, and thus right next to the main building of the university; In the course of this, the previous branch library in Steubenstrasse was also integrated into the central library.
