ETH Library
What you can expect from us:
Information and Literature: Whether you require printed or digital formats or physical objects, we provide you with whatever you need for your research, teaching or degree. At the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich), we provide you with freely accessible specialist literature, collections, data and specimens in a clearly structured manner, and also show you the available contents of the physical collections. We also have quiet reading, study and workspaces.
With its website, the ETH Library offers a central entry point for all users. It provides access to all platforms with digital documents, search tools, licensed electronic resources, physical holdings, the collections and archives, and key external sources.

We run the Research Collection as a repository for your publications and their dissemination, management and documentation, and offer specialised advice on data management and publishing issues, for example data management planning, open access and long-term archiving. We provide additional support for publishing in open-access journals by covering the expenses.
