The amendment to Masaryk University Directive No. 11/2014 – MU Library Regulations comes into effect on October 1, 2026. It reflects changes associated with the upgrade of the library system and adds exemptions for interrupted studies.
In connection with the transition to the new library system, the amended Library Regulations state that registration for Masaryk University library and information services is recorded in the MU Information System (IS MU) and that a registered user is someone who has electronically registered in the relevant registration application within the IS MU.
In addition to this technical adjustment, the amendment grants persons with selected types of study interruption the same rights as students. Specifically, this means that if a student's studies are interrupted by the dean, until the date of the State Final Examination, or due to recognized parenthood, they may continue to use library services free of charge with the same borrowing limits as a currently enrolled student.
On 19 August 2026, Masaryk University libraries transitioned to the new Alma/Primo library platform. The migration to the new system also included the transfer of user data, including registrations and current loans.
We are transitioning to a new library system this summer. Here you will find practical information on what it means for our users.
