Online Account for Library Patrons and E-library card

We are pleased to inform you that an individual online account has been created for library members, which we hope will enhance user experience during on-site as well as remote library use. To access the service you will only need a mobile device (e.g. a notebook, a mobile or a tablet), internet connection and a valid library card. The service is synchronized with our Integrated Library System, therefore no additional registration is required to use it. Similarly, the service may be run via the user’s default web browser on both Android and iOS platforms without installing a dedicated application.

To reach the login interface, click https://login.ogyk.hu/.

We recommend bookmarking this URL or create a shortcut on your Home screen to make signing in easier in the future.

 

Login

On the login interface you may sign in to the service by providing your username (library card number or your email you gave us at registration) and your password. Should you have forgotten your password, you can choose a new one using the password reminder function.

Photo upload

If you would like to use your e-library card for easy and quick access to the library, for enrolled library members we recommend uploading a photo to your account. To upload a new photo or to replace a previously uploaded photo, click on the location of the photo on the Library card page.

 

On the Selfie page, you can use the Browse button to select the photo to upload.

The portrait should be a good quality image of the full face from the front. A minimum size of 640x480 px, which is perfectly fine for any modern mobile phone. If the photo you want to upload is not suitable, you will receive an error message after clicking on the Selfie upload/change button.

If the upload is successful, you will automatically be taken back to the main page of your account, the Library card page.

 

The uploaded photo will be entered into the electronic access control system managed by The Office of the National Assembly. This is a prerequisite for using the application to gain access to the library by means of a face-based access control. Once the data has been synchronised, the facial image is automatically deleted from the library system/the e-library card account. Therefore, the selected photo will not appear here, but a smiley will indicate that there is an uploaded photo in the system.

 

If you would like your photo to be displayed in the reader account interface, you can do so by giving your specific consent. You can give your consent by ticking the checkbox before starting the upload.

 

After a successful upload, the system automatically redirects the browser to the Library card page, where the photo selected by giving your consent will be displayed.

 

 

IMPORTANT! In the case of voluntary uploading of a photo, The Office of the National Assembly is entitled by law to use and register the photo for access control purposes. If you wish your photo to be registered and displayed in the library's database and in the online account, please declare your consent to this when uploading your photo, failing which the system will automatically delete your photo from the e-library card after data synchronisation with the electronic access control system. You may delete your facial image from the e-library card at any time, but this will not affect the further processing of the image in the electronic access control system.

 

Barcode

After signing in, a welcome screen will display your library card number and a barcode. The Parliamentary Guard may ask you to present the QR code during the check-in process to read data from it. Under the barcode the availability of library seats can also be tracked.

Rapid request

For documents that aren’t available in the library in a printed format or the library hasn’t got any fulltext access of them in an online database, the library offers a service to get the fulltext: Rapid request. In this service the available document types to request in fulltext are: journal articles, book chapters or book excerpts. There is no possibility to request a fulltext copy of complete books or issues of journals in this service.
The Rapid request is available for public patrons with yearly paid or discounted membership and for parliamentary users. We are able to process up to 5 active requests of a user at a time. The service is not available for patrons with free library memberships (visitors’ card or guests).
