Consider signing up for a free ORCiD identifier (pronounced like the orchid flower). Why? Your unique ORCiD number can be used to identify you throughout the research and publication process, including during manuscript and grant submissions, as well as on your final publications. This international identifier helps to avoid name confusion and is now used by nearly 15 million faculty, researchers, postdocs, and graduate students worldwide. Make it easy for your publications to be linked to you! By connecting Pure and ORCID, your ORCID profile can be automatically updated with details from Pure.

If you wish to receive your ILL books before the Winter Break (15 December, 2025), please submit your requests by 28 November. Books borrowed from abroad may take 2-3 weeks to arrive and most partner libraries provide only limited ILL services during the holiday season. In case you will be out of the country, indicate in the note field on the ILL form when you will be able to pick up the requested item. Please check Library opening hours before you plan to pick up ILL materials. We are closed between 20 December, 2025 -  4 January, 2026.
