Tips for book purchases
You may not want to purchase an entire book if you only need one article. Many of the articles are collected in compendia or item selections.
As from the autumn 2016 (applicable for campus Trondheim) compendia consisting of book chapters will be available in digital form in the learning management system’s subject room. Printed editions will then no longer be for sale.
Some compendia authored by course teachers will still be available in the Akademika book stores or in your department.
Required books as e-books
An increasing number of books that are on "required reading" lists for courses can be purchased as e-books from different online bookstores.
You can also access electronic books from the University Library (UB). Medical students also have access to an overview of all course-realted e-books that are available at the University Library.
