            * How to find a book
            ******************************************************************************************

            Most of our collections are freely accessible. Books are sorted thematically according to 
            study.
            To find the book you need, you can either browse through a section that interests you, or 

            our electronic catalogue.
            To discover the exact location of the book, write down both shelf marks. Location 2 (e.g. 
            ecumenics) tells you which shelf the book is on, Location 1 (e.g. IK 46929) is the number 

            which the book is placed on the shelf (the books are not in alphabetical order).
