Charles University libraries
Charles University libraries
Rather than being a standard library, the Central Library is the hub for library/information services at Charles University. Standard library services are provided by the libraries at the individual Faculties and other divisions. To use Charles University’s libraries, you need an employee card and a Central Authentication Service (CAS) password. With these, employees can register with libraries by completing electronic applications. Knowing the CAS password is all it takes to use the electronic resources portal.
