The books are concerned with different fields of knowledge.
They mainly concern the fields of knowledge which are present at

Philosophy, Political Science), philological studies (Polish, Russian,
German, English studies), mathematical and natural science (Mathematics,
Technology, Information Science, Biology, Biotechnology, Environmental

in seclusion and concentration can use individual booths, which
are also equipped with computers.
The library uses an integrated library system called 'PROLIB',
which enables searching the collection and booking both by 24 terminals
in the library and on-line by means of OPAC WWW catalogue.
Apart from storing and offering the collection (books
and magazines) the library is developing its library-information
activity in virtual and digital space. By creating a Digital Library
of the University of Rzeszów digitalized versions of the library's
precious works and teaching aids concerning our region will be available.
The library's website www http://bur.univ.rzeszow.pl is a virtual
guide concerning the collection and the regulations which have to
be observed in the library. Via the website you can easily find
access to scientific sources of information widely available in
the Internet and professional, i.e. complete and bibliographic databases
subscribed to by the library and available on the university website.
The library is transforming into a professional information-educational
centre, which supports science, culture and art growth in the academic
community of the University of Rzeszów and the whole region.
