- Library

- how to use the library catalog,
- how to order the necessary materials,
- on what terms can they be used in reading rooms and on what terms can they be borrowed at home.
They also learn about electronic sources of information available in databases. After passing all the modules, the training ends with a simple test to check the acquired skills.
The basic tool for using library collections is an electronic catalog. The system works similarly to an Internet search engine. The collections can be searched in various ways: by the author’s name, title, subject entry, etc., moreover, by logging in to your own account, you can learn about the current status and history of your loans.
Using the resources of the SGH LibraryThe library collections can be used:
- on site (from the collections in the main warehouse or from the reference collection);
- in the General Reading Room, Periodicals Reading Room or Scientific Information Department;
- borrowing books home: from the Lending Library’s collection.
General Reading Room
The General Reading Room is located on the second floor of the Library. Here, on the basis of order slips, orders for books and older magazines in the main warehouse are processed. Particularly popular items, the latest books, readings, in the number of about 20 thousand, are in the Reading Room on site, in free access. This is the so-called reference collection. Some books from the reference collection can be borrowed at home for the night, as part of the so-called night loans, but you have to pay close attention to the time of their return – 10 a.m., because for each subsequent exceeded hour a fee of PLN 5 is charged.
Periodicals Reading Room
On the second floor there is also the Periodicals Reading Room. Its book collection consists of about 1000 titles of Polish and foreign periodicals. In open access, the Reading Room offers both Polish and foreign titles for the last 5 years. Magazines can only be used on site.
SGH Library Lending Desk
On the ground floor of the library building there is the SGH Library Lending Department. The books in her collection are borrowed home. A maximum of 5 volumes can be borrowed for a period of 60 days. Before borrowing a book, each student is obliged to check its availability in the on-line catalogue and search for the call number. The Lending Library’s signatures are marked with the letter “W” and have the status “being loaned”.
Fees for exceeding the deadline for returning a book are high – the library system charges a fee for late return in the amount of PLN 1 for each day of delay for each volume.
In the on-line catalogue you can:- reserve books – this applies to titles whose all copies are currently borrowed,
- extend the deadline for returning the book,
- access selected items within IBUK Libra on-line.
Scientific Information Division (OIN)
On the ground floor of the Library, in room 10, there is the Scientific Information Department (OIN), where you can get support in searching for the necessary materials. OIN employees can help you find publications on a given topic, available both in paper and electronic form. In the Information Department, you can also learn the rules of using a wide range of electronic collections, which can be available to SGH students even without leaving home.
