C.E.T.I.'s Library was founded in 2000.
It is located in the Central Building of C.E.T.I. (Tsimiski
58, 67100 Xanthi). Its content covers a wide spectrum of thematic
areas, which are related to the Institute's research activities.
The bibliography covers primarily the fields of Archaeology,
Museology, Education and Physical Sciences with emphasis on
Arhaeometry, as well as Technology with emphasis on Information
Technology and Computer Science. The present collection includes
over 700 titles (books, journals, atlases, doctoral theses,
CD-ROMs).
It is organized in five main thematic areas (i)
Archaeometry, (ii) Archaeology, (iii) Information Technology,
(iv) Educational Technology and (v) Items of General Interest, while
the journals constitute a separate category. All the titles,
with the exception of journals and CD-ROMs, are filed and
categorized per thematic area and according to the international
standards. Additionally, they are electronically registered
in the system ABEKT 5.5 (System of Library Automatism) of
the National Documentation Centre (NDC). The journals are
categorized alphabetically per title and in chronological
order from the oldest to the most recent. The CD-ROMs are
filed alphabetically and are kept in a special section in
the library. Moreover, the Library is a member of the Hellenic
Academic Libraries Link (HEAL Link), which enables the users
to access on-line journals and publications of the main international
publishers (Elsevier, Springer, Oxford University Press, Wiley,
Blackwell etc.).
Although the Library is not functioning as a lending library, allows the use and study of the books to all personnel, scholars, collaborators, as well as the visitors of the Institute. The content of the Library is constantly expanded and updated according to the evolving needs of the Institute and the recent developments in science and technology. An electronic catalogue is installed to facilitate the use of the library.
