The NTUA Library operates as a lending library for all the members of the NTUA community. In order to borrow items, it is necessary to possess a library card.
The loan period depends on the type of borrowed material and the user’s status (faculty members, technical staff, scientific assistants, administrative staff, undergraduate, postgraduate students and PhD candidates). The user’s status is confirmed by showing the library card which is strictly personal.
It is not allowed for individuals who do not possess a library card to borrow an item, but it is allowed to use the collection (electronic or printed) within the library space and to photocopy part of the printed material they are interested in.
In order to obtain a library card, the following are required:
- Fill in the online form/applicationin the online directory through the webpage of the Library.
- Providing a student or academic card, which the librarian converts into a library card for the undergraduate students, post-graduate students, PHD students, Academic Staff, Administrative Scientific Staff, Researchers Lab Staff, and generally the NTUA’s staff. Scan your academic ID on both sides and send a request to the service “Ask a Librarian” Help Topic: Library Loan Service. Your registration to the Library can conducted daily Monday to Friday until 15:00.
The users who can’t obtain a student card need to bring:
- A recent certification from the appropriate faculty (not necessary for the educational, administrative and technical staff).
The NTUA Alumni members apart from submitting the e-application and a recent photo, are additionally required to:
- Present an ID card
