University of Beira Interior, Portugal
UBI has invested in the creation of well equipped laboratories, in the expansion of its facilities, in the involvement in research projects of national and international scope, and in a qualified teaching staff. With approximately 7000 students, this institution has now more than 29 undergraduate or master courses, about 40 2nd cycle/master courses and about 25 3rd cycle/doctorate
courses, distributed by its five faculties: Faculty of Sciences, Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, Faculty of Arts and Letters and Faculty of Health Sciences.
LIBRARY : The library of the University of Beira Interior, in comparison with other secular university libraries, is too young. Very recently, by Rector’s proposal and decision of the General Council of UBI (2014), it has also joined the UBI’s Graphic Services and Publications, which are called Typography. So with this bouquet of poles and services, the library seeks to ensure a proximity service to the academic community, especially to students and teachers, although it was recently opened to the entire surrounding community by creating the “External Reader” figure.
