Overdue Fees During the Summer Opening Hours
Between July 20 and August 21, 2026, overdue fees will not accumulate for items past their due dates. Outstanding debts from earlier periods can be settled during the closure by bank transfer, or in cash and card during opening hours. University students may also pay via the Neptun academic system.
| Attention! Changes in opening hours do not exempt users from complying with the rules set out in the Library Usage Policy.
Book Loans
Outside of opening hours, books can be borrowed using the SmartLock self-service machine, located opposite the Textbook Reading Room, next to the book return box.
During opening hours, books can be borrowed as usual.
Due to technical reasons, the online catalog is currently only accessible from home via VPN. Therefore, book requests can also be made by emailing konyvtar@bme.hu, with collection via the SmartLock machine.
Returning Books
Books can be returned independently of the library's opening hours through the book return boxes located in the University’s central building:
- at the main entrance of Building K
- opposite the Textbook Reading Room
Interlibrary Loan
Interlibrary loan services are available during the library’s current opening hours. Requests can be submitted primarily via konyvtar.konyvtarkozi@bme.hu or through the online interlibrary loan interface. For further details, please consult with our staff.
Remote Services
The library continues to offer many services throughout the summer that are accessible anytime, from anywhere.
If you have any questions or feedback regarding our services, feel free to contact us using our available contact details.
Information about changes in the service schedule of the Archives, operating within the BME OMIKK organization, can be found on the BME Archives website.
