| Description: | History of the University A higher educational institute in Veszprém was founded in 1949 by state degree as a regional Faculty of Heavy Chemical Engineering of the Technical University of Budapest. Later in 1951 it became independent under the name the Veszprém University of Chemical Engineering. Since 1991 it has been called the University of Veszprém. The year 2000 brought more changes in the life of the university as the Georgikon Faculty of Agriculture of the Pannon University of Agricultural Sciences was integrated into the University of Veszprém. By the 2003 the University had a total five faculties Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Arts, Faculty of Information Technology, Faculty of Economics, Georgikon Faculty of Agriculture. Since 2006 it has been called the University of Pannonia. The Library The library began operating in 1949. Since its fundation, the library’s collection was specialized in the areas of chemistry and chemical industry. In 1971 a computer-based chemical literature retrieval system was prepared and was based on the magnetic tapes of the Chemical Abstracts Condensates (CAC). During the 1980s, services were further developed. The first online connection to the Dialog database was established in 1982, and it became possible to search among their 150 databases and 60 million records. When the Faculty of Arts was established in 1990, the library was presented with a great challenge in serving their needs. The library began to establish a book collection focused on the humanities. One milestone in the history of the library was the introduction in 1993 of the online integrated library system, ALEPH. Today the library has more softwares for information retrieving: SFX, Metalib and Digitool. The library maintains a wide range of international connections and is an active member of the IATUL (International Associatio |
