2. For the copy data of the book selected for the search, click the Place of Hold button in the last column. In case you have not registered in advance, you can do so at this point.
   
    
3. Check the details of the book and the location of receipt in the form that opens!

5. At the end of the operation, in order to protect your own data, log out of the system!
    

Pay attention this:

• If your membership has expired or you have already reached the maximum limit of requests, your request from the stocks will not be accepted. In both cases, an information message will let you know why the request cannot be continued.
• The set-aside time is the interval during which the document is set aside in your name. Setting this field is automatic with a maximum of 2 business days for books requested and 10 business days for local use.

   • If the data of a given document contains information about both numbering and publication year (i.e. vol. 25. no. 5. 2014.), then the system will automatically fill in the required spaces on the application form with this information.
   • In that case if the copy data of the periodical contains aggregated data with the numbering data of the opening and closing volumes (e.g. 1st year 1990 – 15th year 2004), you must delete this data series and then enter the desired year or years (it is necessary!), volume and number (only if you are certain about them).
