Additional information regarding your order

  • Only copyrightfree books (author died 70 years ago) will be digitized by the University Library of Graz.
  • Older books published before 1800 and medieval manuscripts are also digitised on request. The price is, however, also specified in detail and goes by the condition and value of the books. In such cases, we will inform you in time and provide you with an unbinding quote.
  • We wish to point out that automatic text recognition (OCR) does not fully provide perfect results and inaccuracies can occur especially with older books.
  • Public domain books published and books for which we receive a declaration of consent from the author or publishing houses are imported by us into our digital library and are thus globally available and also long-term preserved.
  • By ordering you accept the Terms and Conditions.

Payment options

Benefit from the various options of online payment:

  • Direct payment by all leading credit cards providers (Visa, Mastercard, Diners Club, American Express) or Paypal.
  • You can alternatively pay by invoice.

Shipment

Shipment schedule: We endeavour to digitise and ship the book within one week. This, however, requires the physical presence of the book in the library. For longer shipment schedules we will inform you immediately.  
Shipment options: By standard our eBook will be available to you to download via the Internet immediately after payment. This link exists for two months. Thus you can immediately work with your eBook.  

You can also choose shipment on a data carrier (CD-ROM or DVD, depending on the size of the file), subject to a surcharge:

  • Europe: EUR 6
  • Worldwide: EUR 8
