Storage request from home

Until 2021, documents could only be requested from the storage for on-site use or loaning via computers located in the Centre for Knowledge building. However, as of September 6, 2021, this interface can be also used from home.

What do I need if I would like to use the service?

• - valid library card
• - Internet access

Steps to use the interface:

1. Visit the WebPac interface.
2. Log in with your Patron data (Reader data): Patron’s bar code (which is your library card number) and password (birth month and day, eg. 0509).
3. Click “Simple Search” / “Advanced Search”.
4. Search for the required document, and then click "Details".
5. A storage request can only be initiated for a document with the message “Tudásközpont Raktár” (“Centre for Knowledge Storage”) under the heading “Location” and with the option “Loanable” in the corresponding line under the heading “Status”.
6. Click “Checkout”.
7. To submit your request, complete the following fields:
   • Request Purpose: Lending / reading
   • Serving location: One of the 4 floors. Select the floor at which you want to pick up the document
   • Volume: in case of a multi-volume document which one would you like to request
8. Click the “Send storage request” button and you are done

When can I receive my document after sending the request?

Requests sent between 10:00 and 17:00 on weekdays and Saturdays can be picked up during the opening hours – at the day of sending of the request – no later than half an hour before closing, at the serving location of your choice.

Requests submitted after 17:00 can be received on the next business day.

Important! The prepared documents are kept for 3 days at the specified serving location.

What is the advantage of the service?

- You save time, because by the time you get to the library, the requested documents will be prepared for you.

- Requests can be sent to all documents in the storage, regardless of its type (book, magazine, map, sheet music, etc.).

- It is important, however, that a maximum of 10 documents can be requested from the storage at one time.
