Information searches taking less then half an hour are free of charge, see price list. Usually answers are found while the patron waits or during the same work day.

Literature searches

One can order literature searches of the materials within the library. The searches are done in the TENTTU databases.

Also more extensive literature searches can be made; mapping the literature of a certain field for product development purposes for example. The searches are done in databases and result in a list of relevant literature. Both Finnish and international databases are used. There are hundreds of databases available in engineering and related sciences.
