Room indications
For room indications, the letters describe the building or part of the building (e.g. ME0.203 = Mensa building). All buildings (or parts of buildings) on the Paderborn University campus are assigned letters, which are located on the respective external facade and above the lifts.
In the case of multi-digit numbers after the letter, the first number indicates the floor and the numbers after the dot indicate the room number (e. g. W1.101 = building W, 1st floor, room 101).
A single number after the letter indicates a lecture hall (e. g. A1 = Lecture Hall A1), whereby these lecture halls are usually located on the ground floor. In addition, there are also "free-standing" lecture halls that do not have an additional number (e. g. G or the Audimax (AM)).
Exception: In the P complex, the first number indicates the part of the building (e.g. P1 = building P1), the floors and room numbers follow (e.g. P4.3.02 = building P4, 3rd floor, room 02).
