Online catalogue ESTER can be used without submitting any personal information. In order to use the personalised services of the online catalogue, you have to register as user of one of the libraries using the online catalogue ESTER. Each registered user will get a personal user account My ESTER which enables them to view the checkouts, renew due dates, request or sign up for items, save records to lists, rate publications, etc. Personal reading history and saved lists can be viewed only by the users themselves.
When registering as user, the personal information collected differs by libraries. To learn more about collecting, using and storing this information, please contact your library.
The personal information of users is available solely to employees authorised by the libraries who use the online catalogue ESTER. The collected information is not communicated to third persons unless otherwise specified in legislation.
Personal information is processed for library purposes also in cases where the person in question appears in the online catalogue in connection with a work recorded in the catalogue (this person is the author, designer, editor, etc., or the work is about this person). Along with the person’s name, also other data are collected (e.g birth and death dates, occupation or field of activity) that are published in the work or have become available to the library by other means via open sources. The metadata collected for library purposes are stored forever and displayed in the online catalogue ESTER without asking prior permission.
