... Nadine Casper! She won the €20 book voucher in our quiz to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the library and mensa building on the Görlitz campus!

And by the way, we will now finally find out why there is a huge koala (plush) bear in the Görlitz library. There was an additional question in the quiz where the quiz participants had to come up with a plausible story about the koala. Here are the - in our opinion - two best ones:

1. as an Australian exchange professor of applied climbing physics prepares for his next lecture.

2. if you're desperate and can't get on with your studies, you can cuddle the koala and have a good cry.

The truth is, by the way, that the koala is the mascot of an Australian software company that developed the library software used by the University Library. The library received the plush koala as a gift when the new software was introduced and he has been sitting there reading and reading and reading ever since...
