Convenient ordering system for teaching staff

Lehmanns ordering platform Le2b

The Lehmanns ordering platform Le2b is an ordering portal for printed books, individual e-books or e-book packages.

Le2b has a convenient search menu, a duplicate checking with the ZHB holdings (see Webopac) and detailed product details, so-called fact sheets (very helpful when ordering e-books). Furthermore, the new publications service (Lehmanns Alerting Service, LAS) in which you can create and maintain your own profile lists, supports you. With the help of this service you get an easier overview of the book market and can simply send your shopping cart to the ZHB, where your orders are further processed.

If you do not have your own budget, you can still use this service. Please send us the name of the respective contact person (institute spokesperson or library representative) and we will forward your order requests there.

If you would like to work with the Le2b in the future, please contact the acquisition team of the ZHB.

Many academic publishers are offering their ebook-collections via "evidence-based selection (EBS)".

As a rule, the entire ebook-collection of a publisher is licenced for a 12 month period for a set price.
After the running time is over, an assortment of ebook titles, worth the pre-set sum, can be selected and bought. Those titles are then permanently accessible.
The rest of the publishers ebook-collection will no longer be accessible and the titles will be deleted from the library catalogue.

EBS models currently licensed by the ZHB for the EUF

• Ordering: Please direct your media orders to the respective library representative of your institute (or your seminar, your department). Your orders will be forwarded from there to the staff of the ZHB Acquisition after consultation with the institute spokesperson.

Delivery times may vary considerably:

• German language publications are usually delivered within a few days. 
• Books from abroad usually take 10 days to three weeks.
• E-books are often available immediately. In some cases it may take several days to activate the license.
• some older or seldom requested titles are only printed when ordered (Print on demand or PoD). This can take several days

In very urgent cases please let us know in your order.

The checkout deadline announced annually at the universities also applies to the ZHB. Any invoices received after this date cannot be considered in the budget year.
