European Documentation Centre

The aim of the European Documentation Centre (EDC) is to facilitate research on the European Union. To collect, systematise and make available (partly on loan) literature on European integration for students, academics and researchers in the field of European studies and for interested individuals.

Services

The Documentation Centre's services include personal and online reference (technical information) on the Union. This includes, of course, traditional library loan. The European Documentation Centre also functions as a reading room and is widely used by Hungarian and foreign students. The room has access to the Legal Database (Jogkódex) compiled by HVG ORAC (subscribed by the library). Offsite computers also contain legal acts with legislative changes, bills, cases, legal articles, the EU Code of Law (EU-Jogkódex), case studies, commentaries and glossary. For access and availability, please contact us on the 3rd floor circulation desk.
