Is the literature you are looking for not in the collection of the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam? You can obtain publications from other libraries via interlibrary loan.

The media can be extended one week before the expiry of the loan period, provided they have not been earmarked. The extended loan period is attached to the date of issue. The media can be extended twice.

Students of the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam who are writing their diploma, bachelor's or master's thesis can apply for an extended loan period after submitting their confirmed topic. This is 40 opening days as well as an extension if there is no reservation.

Media that are marked as borrowed in the catalogue of the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam library can be reserved if they do not belong to a special location, such as: "Handapparat" or the status "Dauerausleihe".

If the desired item is on loan, please click on the term order under availability. A new window will open asking for your user number and password. Please enter these and confirm the entry. The copy is then reserved for you. When the reserved copy arrives at the library, you will automatically be informed by e-mail. You can then collect your order from us within the following ten opening days. If you do not pick up your order, it will be removed from your library account.

The user data can be accessed on the pages of the library catalogue (FHPKat) under the account tab. If you click on this button, a new window will open. Here you will be asked for your user number and password. Please enter this data. Confirm the entry. Once you have logged in, you can view the following information here:
