Further services

Borrowing history

I would like my borrowing history to be saved, so that when I borrow something it is clear whether I have borrowed that item before. I consent to the data processing required for this under § 6(1)(b) of the Act on Church Data Protection (KDG).

Digital online services

I would like to view my reader account online and to use the other digital online services such as Onleihe (e-media lending), Brockhaus, Munzinger and so on, and for that purpose I agree to my reader data being transferred to the library's BVS eOPAC. I consent to the data processing required for this under § 6(1)(b) KDG.

Family overview

I agree that my data may also be seen by other family members, for example in a family overview on a shared loans receipt.

Several times a day our local IT system checks whether there are any online registrations and takes them in. Your details are then deleted from this web server.

You will get your card on your next visit. Please bring your ID card or another form of photo ID so we can check your details — the application is then signed here at the library.

If you are under 16, a parent or guardian has to come along on your first visit and sign.
