Summary/Abstract: The practice of attending universities has long been a favorite subject matter for cultural studies in Hungary. The field I have specified, however, is fairly unknown. Although there are booklists of Hungarians students who visited Switzerland between 1526 -1750 available, there are only sporadic data on how they used libraries. That is, the usage data for the libraries belonging to different kind of student subsidiaries, student associations and central libraries of universities are not yet studied regarding Hungarian students. The aim of my research is to gather all relevant sources from the archives/manuscript collections/libraries throughout in Basel.
