About the Library of Ternopil Ivan Puluj National Technical University

In 1961, a faculty library was established on the basis of the library collections of the Lviv Polytechnic Institute and our own acquisitions. The fund numbered 7 thousand volumes, and in 1964 — 14310 copies of books, mostly educational in nature. And this book fund is systematically replenished. At that time, the library was receiving 50 titles for newspapers and magazines.

As a result of the creation of the Ternopil branch of the Ternopil branch of the Lviv Polytechnic Institute on the basis of the STF, the Faculty Library became known as the Library. It funds were constantly replenished in line with the expansion of the branch’s specialization. The fund was replenished not only by academic, but also by scientific and popular science literature. In 1991 a decision was made to rename to the Ternopil Instrument-Making Institute, and the library received the status of the Scientific and Technical Library of the Ternopil Instrument-Making Institute. Based on the renaming in 1997 to Ternopil State Technical University named after I.V. I. Pulyuya our library has become a scientific and technical library.The library’s collections consist of 142,739 copies, including:

• Educational — 108 324;
• Methodological — 15 828;
• Scientific — 10 542;
• Artistic — 8 045.

The work of our library is closely connected with the departments. Provision of students with educational literature and teaching aids is carried out according to the programs of courses, applications of teachers, price lists. Particular importance is given to providing students with educational literature in the Ukrainian language, but opportunities are limited as technical literature in the Ukrainian language is published in small numbers. Recently, the funds have been replenished with new literature on economic and computer sciences, as well as textbooks in the Ukrainian language in the humanities — history of Ukraine, religion, philosophy, and cultural history.

Library catalogs — alphabetical-reader, alphabetical-service, systematic, alphabetical-subject electronic. The variety of directories contributes to the rapid and complete selection of literature on relevant topics.

One of the new sides of the work is the creation of an electronic library. The entire fund is included in the electronic catalog, which provides search of literature by book title, author’s name, publisher, abstract, author’s code. Thanks to the electronic catalog, the university’s local network and the Internet were able to quickly find the necessary literature, browse the necessary sections, and prepare thematic reviews.

The library has a server based on which the library domain is organized. 10 computers are available for search, serving an average of about 150 users per day. The library maintains: systematic filing of journal articles, university on the pages of newspapers, filing cabinet of laws and decrees of the government, filing cabinet providing educational literature.
