Logistics & Library: Finding Books

Introduction to the library collectie for Logistics Management & Logistics Engineering students

Step 1: Use the Library Catalogue

If you are searching for a book then start your search in the  Library Catalogue.

This is a one-stop search engine, that will allow you to search through the whole of the book collection at once.

Looking for a book in the library? Use the call number (shelfmark number)

Did you find a book in the library catalogue?

Then write down the call number (standsplaats code) with wich you can find the book in the library

For instance if a book has call number: 658.4 SLM 151

Then the first part of the call number is the category => 658.4

This is the number you should look for first, you can find the category numbers on the side of the bookcases in the library.

The second part of the call number is the booknumber => 151, this number can be found at the top of the spine ofthe book. 

Cannot find the book? Then ask for help at the information desk in the library. Library staff is available to help from monday-friday between 08:30-17:00.

Or place a reservervation on the book (by choosing the 'place hold' option), and library staff will put the book on the shelf with reserved books in the library.

 

Ebooks

The library offers you acess to thousands of ebooks.

If a book is available as an ebook, then you will see an orange Click here to access online button  (see screenshot below)

After clicking on this fulltext button you will be asked to log in with your Buas account.

After logging in you will be able to access the ebook.

Please note: it is possible that you cannot access an ebook, because the maximum amount of simultaneous users has been reached. If this happens, than wait 15-30 minutes and then try logging in again.
