medical faculty. A separate Medical Library is situated on the Hoboken‐campus. All<br />

catalogues and most databases are accessible online: www.eur.nl/ub. The UL also<br />

University Library (UB)<br />

The UB (‘Universiteitsbibliotheek’) collection includes almost one million books and<br />

275,000 e‐books. It has access to the full text of 18,000 e‐journals. There is also a<br />

collection of around 1,400 printed journals. Part of the collection of books and<br />

periodicals is available in the study areas and the periodicals room, for use in the<br />

library. However, the main part of the collection is stored in closed stacks, which are<br />

accessible by placing book orders on the UB web site. Your book(s) will be available<br />

at the desk within about 30 minutes. The library also has a search utility on the<br />

website which you can use if a journal is available electronically.<br />

You need a library card to borrow books, journals etc. from the library. The (free) UB<br />

card can be obtained by sending an e‐mail to the lending desk: balie@ubib.eur.nl. To<br />

collect your card you must show your passport and student card. See www.eur.nl/ub<br />

for more information. The library card can also be used for lending books from BIC,<br />

the local library in the Faculty of Business Administration. Please note that you need<br />

a special copy card for the library; you cannot use your faculty copy card.<br />

You can find information regarding the UB or search the UB catalogue and<br />

catalogues of other major libraries on the UL website (www.eur.nl/ub). Printed<br />

bibliographies and digital databases, such as Online Contents, are available to search<br />

for articles. Publications sourced from outside the UB can be requested for a small<br />

charge. They will then be delivered from elsewhere in The Netherlands.<br />

For information regarding services, search methods, databases and study room<br />

collections, please turn to the information desks. Tours and user instructions are<br />

available upon request. Information leaflets are also available at the information<br />

desks.<br />

The UB has subject specialists for each scientific field. They are responsible for the<br />

acquisition of new publications and for helping to solve specific questions in their<br />

field. The subject specialist for Business Administration is Erik de Munck Mortier<br />
