How to borrow material from the Lund Observatory Library

All book loans must be recorded in LOVISA, the Lund University library catalogue. To get your loans registered, ask for help at the desk outside the library. Here you can also get a library card to the Lund University libraries.

If there are no staff present to help you (e.g. during evenings and weekends), please go to the web page boklan.fysik.lu.se and follow the instructions.

Another possibility is to take a copy (free of charge) of the barcode (the back of the book, not on the cover) and the barcode of your library card. Some books have no barcodes yet, and then we would like you to take a copy of the front page or title page of the book.  The copying machine is the office desk.

When the book is returned it is important that it is deregistered. Please, give the book to the staff or put it in the box opposite the office desk.
