Tampere University Library is an open academic library that offers its services at four different locations as well as online. The Library is free of charge to all students and staff.
The Library provides an open information and learning environment, which is not limited to a physical space, but is also available online wherever our customers, especially students, are.
The Library acquires course books for courses taught both at Tampere University and Tampere University of Applied Sciences. Course books are available in print, and some also as e-books.
Use the Andor search service to search for course books with the book title.

The Library does not limit the amount of borrowed books. However, the loan periods for the printed books can vary.
The usual loan period for the general collection is four weeks and two weeks for course books. Always check the due dates from your receipt in order to avoid any late fees.
If you need to extend your loan period, you can renew your loans in Andor. More information on our loan services can be found on our website.
