Course literature
Course literature is crucial for your study success! Ensure you have access to it at the start of the course, whether by purchasing, borrowing from the library, or using scanned materials. Always check if the book is available as an e-book.

Borrow
Use the Library Search Tool to find your course books. Select the title to check if the book is available. If the book is available on the shelf, retrieve it yourself and borrow it using the self-checkout machine. If the book is currently checked out, you can reserve it by selecting Place Hold. Course books have a 14-day loan period, and the library keeps multiple copies of each title.
If you are a distance student at Luleå University of Technology and live elsewhere, contact a local library near you.
