University and District Library

Book delivery by mail

Friday 3 April 2020

For the current closing period, the University and District Library offers university members the possibility of ordering media by mail - from now on only in exceptional cases (quarantine, “risk group”).

The mailing service is new territory for the library. Please read the following conditions carefully. In this way you can guarantee a smooth processing of your order:

 

- With your order you declare your binding agreement to pay any shipping costs incurred. We only send insured packages with DHL within Germany. The costs amount to 4,92 EUR. Other shipping methods are not possible.

- In any case, please provide a telephone number for short-term inquiries​.

- The fee will be charged on your library account. Payment will be made by bank transfer or for employees: within your cost centre. With the deliery, you will receive further information.

- Please use our library catalogue (https://www.h-brs.de/en/bib/catalogue) to search for media. Here you will also find the shelfmark required for ordering. Please also check the availability of the books as eBooks when doing your research. We only ship books that we do not own as eBooks.

- Orders with books from Rheinbach may take longer to deliver.

- With the start of this service, we ship book orders on Tuesday and Friday. Since we cannot yet estimate the volume of orders, please allow a few days for processing.

- Our packaging materials are currently limited. Further procurement is difficult due to the current situation. Bottlenecks may occur.
