Welcome to the ESTP libraries website
Library
the documentary collection
The documentary collection specialises in the fields of construction, civil engineering, architecture and urban planning. It also includes other topics connected with the school’s courses and the skills our students aim to develop: basic science, business administration, management, foreign languages, human sciences, economies, etc.
The collection is composed of technical and scientific monographs, encyclopaedias, specialised and general periodicals and Master’s theses, along with a number of works of fiction
access to the collection
Searches are carried out via a documentary catalogue called Flora, which is accessible to everyone and enables users to find specific, high-quality works. As a result, the library was awarded the CollEx “City: architecture, civil engineering and urban planning” label in 2017.
Students currently studying at the school and ESTP’s permanent staff also have access to a good many digital resources (including newspapers, eBooks, and documentary databases). To access them, authorisation is required and is connected to your Office 365 account. You are sent an email at the beginning of the year or after your employment, specifying access procedures.
All ESTP students and staff can make use of the libraries’ services. Their student or professional card may be requested in order to benefit from loan services and access to certain areas.
Alumni can also consult and borrow documents under certain conditions: contact us to find out about the required procedures.
Outsiders conducting research in the field of construction may also consult documents upon appointment.
