There is a circulation desk in the Library structure which deals with books and journals in international languages. There you can borrow books for a semester, or study in the reading room.
Сollection: around 26,000 items in 19 languages of different nations around the world.
Location: 4 Turgeneva Street, Room 356.

The peculiarity of the printed collection of this circulation desk is that it consists of the authentic books issued by foreign publishers. Here you can find books on linguistics, literary criticism, economics, history, politics, law and international relations, country studies and other humanities and social sciences. Besides that, there is a broad choice of fiction; albums and books on art; universal encyclopedic editions (Britannica, World Book); foreign and domestic dictionaries: bilingual, multilingual, explanatory and subject ones; methodical literature for teachers of foreign languages and linguists; periodicals: «Time», «Journal of Linguistics», «National Geographic», «Der Spiegel», «Dossier de L'Art» etc., as well as a collection of book rarities from early 1900s.

The overall Library foreign-language collection totals to 80 thousand items. You can find them in different Library departments located in UrFU buildings on 19 Mira St. (mostly technics and engineering) and 48 Kuybysheva St. (mostly natural sciences). Books published in the 17th-19th centuries (we can boast of such!) are kept in the Department of Rare Books. Often items issued by Russian publishing houses have parallel texts in both Russian and some foreign language, for example, English. To accurately determine availability and location of the desired item, you can use Electronic Catalogue on the Library website.

Besides that, UrFU Electronic Resources contain full-text electronic collections of scholarly, educational and literary-and-art items in different languages. We welcome students and professors to use all the opportunities offered by our Library!
