Historical Note<\/h3>
\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Francisco Pereira de Moura Library is ISEG\u2019s bibliographic resource center, housing a large and valuable collection of documents in both print and digital formats, available for on-site or online consultation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Francisco Pereira de Moura Library is ISEG's bibliographic resource centre. Owing to its history, rich content, the thematic diversity of its collection (encompassing all scientific areas), and the fact that it is constantly updated, this collection can be considered to be the most important University Library in the country in the fields of economics and business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our library is a dynamic space for cultural and scientific activities, closely connected to the school and the community, reflecting its mission and privileged location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ISEG Library has modern facilities that allow users to make comfortable use of its resources, with equipment to access bibliographic and numerical databases. It also has qualified staff to assist readers in information research. The opening hours are designed to accommodate these services alongside the professional activities of its users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this context, it is worth emphasizing that the library is a privileged study space, so it is important to observe the established regulations, particularly regarding noise (respecting the study of other users) and adherence to borrowing rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FRANCISCO PEREIRA DE MOURA Library originated with a collection of 650 volumes at the former Instituto Superior de Com\u00e9rcio, located in the building on Rua do Quelhas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Information System is based on an internally produced database and access to various international online information systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Library building has 5 floors, numbered 0 to 4, with a total area of approximately 3,577 m\u00b2. The entrance is on floor 0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The facilities are equipped with a magnetic document control system and video surveillance throughout the Library, in addition to the security devices typical of public buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Floor 0: Entrance atrium; reception and concierge; locker area; informal reading area; study rooms. Storage area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Floor 1: Service desk; reference area; periodicals reading and consultation room; international organizations; room reserved for Master\u2019s students; periodicals storage; catalog consultation terminals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Floor 2: Service desk; catalog consultation terminals; book reading and consultation room; individual reading and work stations; book storage

Floor 3: Service desk; book reading and consultation room; book storage.

Floor 4: Technical offices of library staff. Document reception.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

To renew a borrowed item, the user may do so in person, by phone, or by email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

penalties<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The loss or damage of publications implies their replacement or compensation for an amount equal to their price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users who attempt to withdraw publications from the library without prior request will be deprived of the right to request them for a period of one year and may be subject to disciplinary proceedings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To search any publication, whatever the subject, it is always recommended:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or, in case of difficulty, request assistance from the staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All publications displayed in open access are classified according to the Classification Plan of the US Library of Congress.
US Library of Congress Classification Plan<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This plan is alphanumeric from A to Z and has the particularity of synthesizing within each of the subjects, first the Reference and General Works, Congresses and Collective Works.

Economics, Finance, Management, and related Auxiliary Sciences, almost all of which fall under Class
