Explanatory note added to show that this form of the petition is merely a translation.
Neue Begründung:
The expansion of university materials online has been inadequate for many students, who, due to the lockdown, have been unable to get much-needed materials for their classes. As a result, this has been largely detrimental to learning.
The freedom of research needs to be preserved and, with a hygiene plan corresponding to the current situation, books can spread knowledge - not the virus!
The scanning service for books offered by some universities has been poorly implemented and impratical at times, as an incorrect or insufficient quantity of pages are occassionally scanned.
The limited access to university materials leads to students not being able to adequately satisfy their degree requirements in a prompt manner. As a result, the length of time spent in a degree program is unnecessarily extended.
For these reasons, we advocate for university libraries in Bavaria to offer a "click and collect" system!
