Study and Research Help
Reading Hall
All registered users can use the collection and databases of our library in the Reading Hall.
Before coming to the library, it is useful to browse our online catalogue to check the availability of the documents. Entering the Reading Hall, users have to present either
- their library card (on phone or on paper) OR
- student card – if they don’t have any, they have to registrate personally.
Books can be found on the shelves of the Reading Hall and in the stock of the library (stock requests are accepted only before 4 pm.)
On the Gallery of the Reading Hall periodicals of Law, Politics, Social Sciences etc. are available in Hungarian, in English, in German and in French. Beside these ones more than 3500 journals are available from databases. For using the wifi network, users have to register online. (The content is in Hungarian, but you can use the Google Translate service to make it English.)
Documents cannot be copied in the library, but can be scanned – respecting the copyright rules.
