Literature

On this page we want to explain you how to access the UniBib and give you an idea of books and websites that have proven to be useful.

The Uni-Bib

Borrowing books from the university library is quick and easy:

  • On the homepage of the Uni-Bib you will find the catalog Plus, where you can search for books.
  • If you are in the university network (either on site or via VPN), you can access some books in full text as PDF.
  • For books that you cannot download, you will find an indication where they are located and whether they are still available.
  • Books from the textbook collection on the first floor (such as the Albach or Das gelbe Rechenbuch) are not shown in the Catalog Plus. You just have to go there and see if there are any copies left.
  • To borrow on site, you need the campus ID from the TU app. You have to scan the books at the machines at the exit.
  • To return the books, use the return station.

You can find out how to download the books from home via VPN and more information on the Uni-Bib page.

Booklist

Here is a small selection of books that we have come across. Which is the right book or books for you, you have to try out or find out yourself, so feel free to look in several. Tip: Borrow from the library first, then buy if it's suitable for your collection.

For more information and reviews on the books, check out the E-Room.
