Departmental Drive-through for Mind – WILiGZ Library

The circular economy is an indispensable element of the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Resource Management. This element is an integral part of every WILiGZ cell, even our library. We would like to tell you that since this month the WILiGZ Library has been actively joining the action ‘Free the book. ‘Free the book‘ is an example of bookcrosing activity, the idea of which is to make books available free of charge in specially prepared places. Thanks to this, every member of the academic community, whether it is a student or an employee, will be able to reach for them, take them to yourself and read while passing by. After reading, the person put back the book aside on special shelves located in the connector of building A1 with A0 and under the W. Budryk board in building A4, so that the next person could freely reach for it.

Circular economy and Drive-through Library

To be consistent with the idea of a circular economy, you too can release your read books and leave them on the shelf. Thanks to this, you will give them a new, second life. Under the racks, you can approach or even ride a scooter at any time. In addition, the Faculty Library will provide you with a new dose of literature from time to time. Thanks to this, you will be able to develop your interests, acquire new skills and travel with pleasure throughout your studies at WILiGZ.

May news

According to what we wrote in May, you can find more news in the Faculty Library. This month, we focused strongly on the scientific discipline related to Civil Engineering and Transport. In the items we have purchased, you will find information related to:

• a waterproofing,
• widely understood installations,
• wooden constructions,
• railway infrastructure.

As a curiosity, we can recommend you a book by professor Stanisław Pisarczyk entitled ‘Building Embankments’, and the first novel in the history of Polish literature devoted to Polish so-called builders, ‘Budowlanka, that is pathologies of Polish construction’, by Tomasz Markun.
In addition, from this month you will be able to find a new magazine ‘Mosty’ here. This item is especially addressed to people who are looking for practical advice, information related to inspiring projects or the most interesting projects, and comments from experts related to bridge structures.
Detailed information about our news can be found below this post.

Let’s improve us!

We will provide you with information about our next new products on a regular basis through the department’s website and on the ‘stumbling blocks‘ on display in buildings A1 and A4.
