The library was opened in 2001 as a joint library of the University of Fine Arts and the Muenster School of Architecture at FH Münster – University of Applied Sciences. With the establishment of the Muenster School of Design on the Leonardo Campus in 2009 and the associated growth in library holdings, an extension of the building became necessary. The extension was planned and realised by the student working group “zauberscho(e)n” under the direction of Prof. Herbert Bühler (FH Münster).
The collection focuses on contemporary art. The collection in the area of art education/art didactics has recently been greatly expanded.
The library is equipped with:
- 8 Internet workstations
- Scanners for documents up to DIN A3
- 3 working boots (for use on a daily basis, no advance reservation possible)
- Colour copiers with the option to scan and print from a USB stick
- Return box (return option outside opening hours)
A special feature is the online material library. Over 600 different materials are listed here with information on their origin, appearance, specific properties and areas of application.
