The catalogue is freely accessible to everyone. The scholarly sources themselves are mostly restricted to the UGent network. Visitors can make use of the libraries to consult material.

Open Access, free access to scholarly information, is a spearhead of the university library. That's why many publications written by UGent researchers are freely available in the academic bibliography, as are many images in the image database. All these collections are made available in lib.ugent.be. Read our disclaimer to know what you can and cannot do with the data.
