Electronic ordering of library materials via digitized catalog
For electronic ordering of library materials valid library card or active library account is needed. Electronic orders can be sent to:
- Main Lending Department,
- Main Reading Room,
- Special Collections’ Reading Room,
- Current (and Archived) Periodicals Reading Room,
- Silesian Collection Reading Room.
Over every scanned catalog card the button „Zamówienie” (Order) is placed, which allows ordering materials. After clicking on it, electronic form for ordering will appear. All fields marked with a star are required to be filled in. While filling in an electronic form special attention must be paid to localization of ordering library materials, that is shown on the scanned image of catalog card – the same localization must be then chosen from the scroll down menu. If there is no localizing stamp on the catalog card – option “Brak pieczątki z lokalizacją” (No location’s stamp) should be chosen. Next, place of collecting ordered materials has to be chosen (Lending Department or Main Reading Room). Call number is required to be written in full form, including Roman numerals describing format (e.g. 2578 I). If there is more then one call number, they should be separated by space. If the whole block of call numbers is written on catalog card, in the electronic form they can be written with dash (e.g. 987558 II – 561 II). In the field Rok wydania / Tom (year of publication / volume) full year of publication (e.g. 1851) must be written, and in the case of multivolume publication also designation of the ordered volume (e.g. 1851 t.7). After all fields have been filled in, an order has to be submitted by pushing button „Zamawiam!” (Ordering!).
