The majority of the material is kept in closed storage where the users cannot access the book shelves. Information on the material and its accessibility can be found in the computer catalogue - KatNUK. Only items available for home loan can be checked out (status "available - outside loan").
- Search for material in the computer catalogue - KatNUK (COBISS+), find the desired item and open the record. Click Reserve, then log in with your library card number and password. Select the pickup location Circulation desk (Room 4), then select the copy of the material you wish to borrow. Click “Reserve” to complete your request.
- When the material is ready for pickup in the Registration and Circulation Desk (Ground floor, Room 4), you will receive a notification by e-mail (sent to the address provided when you registered at the Library). Materials stored at Turjaška Street 1 (signatures beginning with b, GS, U, or UK) are usually available within 30 minutes after ordering. From Monday to Friday, the last delivery from the main storage takes place at 5 p.m. On Saturdays, there are no deliveries from storage. The delivery times for materials stored in off-site storage (signatures beginning with DS, MDS, or UDS) are listed in the chapter Delivery of Materials. The reserved material will be kept for you for 7 days.
- The loan period for library materials is 30 days. If the material is not reserved by another user, the loan period can be extended three times. After 120 days, you must bring the material to the library for inspection. If you still need the material and it is not reserved, you can borrow it again immediately.
- You can return books at the Registration and Circulation desk, or you can return them to the letterbox of the concierge when the Registration and Circulation desk is closed.
- If you can't find the material you're looking for, use the Ask NUK service.
- You can borrow up to 15 items at a time. If you would like to borrow more items, please send your request to izposoja@nuk.uni-lj.si.
- You cannot order materials if you have outstanding debts to the library.
- Your membership card is not transferable to another person, so you can only order and collect materials in person. In the case of a legitimate reason (e.g. illness), another person may borrow materials on your behalf, but only with your authorisation (print the form or send the details of the proxy to izposoja@nuk.uni-lj.si). The proxy may also renew your membership or pay debts to the library on your behalf.
- Members without a permanent residence in the Republic of Slovenia who do not have a guarantor cannot borrow materials at home.
