Research tips
In addition to accessing the hdpk library’s collection, students are encouraged to make use of other libraries in Berlin such as the libraries of the three large public universities.
Workshops
The hdpk library offers a programme of support for students, to help them finding their way within the information jungle while researching for their course-work or dissertations. These workshops are open to all hdpk students, and can be seen as supplementary to the University’s lectures and seminars. We are also always happy to provide individual advice.
