Use of particularly valuable holdings
In the reading room you can use the holdings that we do not lend out for conservation reasons. This applies to all works older than 100 years.
Rare books, prints published before 1800 and particularly valuable works are subject to special conditions of use due to their value and/or rarity. Such orders will only be issued to you once you have taken note of these special conditions.
