On the 2nd floor of the building, readers have access to study areas and private study booths. Self-service checkout is available via the automated loan machines. Book returns can be made at the automated device on the ground floor, to the right of the Registration area.
During the extended hours, our traditional library services are suspended, except for studying.
Only registered readers or daily ticket holders - with a purchased daily ticket during Registration opening hours (Mon-Fri: 8:00 - 20:00; Sat: 10:00 - 18:00) - can stay on the 2nd floor of the Knowledge Center.
Students of the University of Pécs can enter the library area with a valid student ID card if they do not have a daily ticket or reader's ticket.
During extended hours, the southern entrance from the parking lot will be closed, allowing readers to access the library areas through the northern main entrance.
Bringing food into the library is not permitted. Eating is only allowed outside the library, in the designated area.
The cloakroom will not be operational during the extended hours.
During the opening hours before the extended hours (Mon-Fri: 8:00 - 18:00; Sat: 10:00 - 18:00), library services can be used as usual, meaning - if not already done - you can register, loan books, reserve books, extend the loan period in person, return books, request interlibrary loans, initiate storage requests, or ask librarians for assistance.
The staff of the university library wishes students a successful study period, effective preparation, and a successful exam period!
