Printed and electronic publications for your studies

September 5, 2025

The VILNIUS TECH Library invites students, researchers, and faculty to explore an extensive range of resources designed to support academic study and scientific research. The library provides access to a wide collection of printed and electronic materials, carefully curated to meet the needs of diverse disciplines and research areas. Whether on campus or remotely, community members can conveniently access the latest scholarly information. Constantly expanding its collections, the library is committed to ensuring that every user finds reliable, high-quality, and relevant resources for learning, research, and professional growth.

The library’s printed collections – including textbooks, scientific monographs, dictionaries, encyclopedias, periodicals, and other reference sources—support in-depth study, lecture preparation, and academic writing.

Even broader opportunities are available through the library’s e-resources, which include e-books, scholarly journals, research evaluation and statistical databases, video materials, and more. On the library’s website, electronic resources are organized by discipline and subject within the Thematic Information section for convenient access.

The Temporary Access Databases section highlights electronic resources not permanently subscribed to by VILNIUS TECH but made available by publishers for limited periods of trial access. This information is regularly updated according to ongoing trials and testing opportunities.

All resources can be searched through the VILNIUS TECH Virtual Library, a one-stop search platform that enables simultaneous access to the library’s collections, the LST standards catalogue, subscribed databases, and open access resources. The Virtual Library is accessible from any internet-connected workstation. Users outside the VILNIUS TECH network must connect via the university’s VPN service to access full-text electronic publications. For enhanced security, VPN access requires two-factor authentication (via a mobile application or phone call).

VILNIUS TECH subscribes to a wide range of both general and subject-specific databases, ensuring comprehensive support for study, research, and innovation.
