Tallinn Technical University News & PhD Dissertations

 Already for the sixth year, but this time, as the safety of our guests and speakers is our top priority the conference Industry 4.0 in Practice will be held as a virtual event.

Library is open again for visitors starting from May 18

Service hours: Mon-Fri 10–18, Sat-Sun closed (new hours will be set on 8 June).  

We all have to take some precautions to keep our staff and visitors healthy:

• Although all floors of the library are open, visitors must follow the 2 + 2 rule, wash and clean their hands before and after visiting the library.
• We suggest using the elevator only if you are alone. When taking the stairs, make sure that people going up do not meet with those coming down the stairs.
• We have limited the number of working places in our reading areas and in the computer lab.
• Since magazines, journals and newspapers are frequently used by our readers, it is not possible to read the listed items (until June 10) because the library cannot ensure their cleanliness.
• All returned books are put into quarantine for 72 hours.
• We prefer card payments when paying for the library services.
• Individual and group study rooms and the 24/7 study room/night library are closed.  

Subject librarians still offer their services in a contactless form, they will answer your inquiries by e-mail info@lib.ttu.ee or by phone 620 3553. 

E-library’s databases and electronic resources portal Primo can still be accessed 24/7 via TORU VPN service. 

Bindery services can be ordered at print@lib.ttu.ee. We will complete the orders made by e-mail and hand them over at the bindery’s entrance at the agreed time. Tel. 620 3560. 

Self check-in machine on the first floor of the library is open every day 7.00–22.00.
