More catalogs
You have searched in our Online Library Catalog (OPAC) , but you are still looking for the "right" book? You want to find out which materials (books, data carriers, e-books ...) are still available on your current topic beyond the media offer of our university library?
With the following compilation of access to catalogs of selected libraries locally and in the region as well as to union catalogs and metacatalogs we would like to support you in your further research.
What you find in the catalogs below can usually be ordered via interlibrary loan. If necessary, you can also visit the owning library in person and borrow or use the required literature on site. And of course, you can also suggest media for acquisition that you have identified and that we do not have in our collection.
