Overview
The Luxembourg Learning Centre offers print books, a small collection of print journals and a broad collection of electronic resources like e-books and e-journals in computer science. All print and electronic resources can be found via the a-z.lu catalogue.
Current issues of print journals are located at the beginning of each collection of printed books, classified alphabetically by title (older issues need to be ordered via a form – see Journals).
Examples of classification codes in computer science:
- 004: Computer science; 004.2: Systems analysis and design
- 005: Programs & programming; 005.133: Specific programming languages
- 006: Special computer methods; 006.3: Artificial intelligence
