Overview
The University library offers a broad range of academic publications on the subject of education. While printed collections are based on Belval Campus, all print and electronic resources can be found online in the a-z.lu catalogue. Current issues of printed journals are located on the display shelves at the beginning of each collection, classified alphabetically by title. Older issues need to be ordered via a form – see Journals. Classification codes in education are as follows:
- 370: Education (general); 370.15: Educational psychology
- 372: Elementary education; 372.4: Reading
- 374: Adult education; 374.4: Distance education
- 378: Higher education; 378.3: Student aid & related topics
Below you will find a selection of books, journals, and databases on educational sciences available at the Luxembourg Learning Centre for a quick introduction to the subject.
