ABSTRACT An intermediate storage apparatus for the storage of sheets (2) during a given time has an acceptance and a transportation cycle and includes a feed system (7) and a transportation system (8). In the acceptance cycle the intermediate storage apparatus waits until a first detector (52) detects the presence of a sheet (2) at an entry (11) and triggers off an acceptance operation in the feed system (7) by way of a control device (6). The feed system (7) stacks the sheets (2) which are fed by a conveyor system (4) to provide a stack (12) in the transportation system which is locked in the acceptance cycle. As soon as the acceptance cycle is concluded, the control device (6) decides whether the transportation system (8) is to pass the stack (12) into a box (9) or into a return dish (10) and switches on drive means of the transportation system (8), the stack (12) being transported in the predetermined direction. The intermediate storage apparatus then returns to the acceptance cycle. (Figure 1)
