The Library will be closed between the 23rd of December 2024 and the 1st of January 2025. Our library's services will be available from the 2nd of January 2025.

Due to the relocation of our external warehouse the books and doctoral dissertations stored there, as well as the entire stock of the library's periodicals, will be unavailable until the beginning of January 2025. Many of our books are still available for loan and current literature can be found on the open shelves.

Self-service scanning is now available

As part of our service expansion, self-service scanning became available in our library from the 1st of March 2023. Readers can digitalize documents in a self-service manner, due to the special book scanners.

Using the scanners, up to 30 pages per minute can be scanned without the need to stretch the books on a glass plate, thus saving the spine. The software automatically straightens the pages after laser scanning. The device enables digitisation of documents up to A3 size and has a character recognition function so that scanned content can be saved not only as images but also as editable text.

There are currently two scanners available to our visitors for a time-based fee in the Reading Hall of the University Library:

  • university students, lecturers, researchers: 200 HUF/ 30 minutes
  • other visitors: 300 HUF / 30 minutes
