The Technion Libraries' New Website
Our new website is full of useful information and resources for academic research and studying purposes. The website development and design processes involved thought-through UX and UI thinking (User Experience and Interface) to make the content accessible and simple to navigate.
Contact Us, My Library, and more website pages
The top navigation bar displays useful links such as – Contact Us, Locations and Opening Hours, My Library (library card), and Helpdesk – where you can contact support (and IT) and send us your questions or requests.
The different categories of the navigation bar will display a detailed drop-down menu with links to all the content pages of the website, including links to various services, tutorials and more.
Search Bar
The libraries provide several alternatives for advanced academic research:
Books & More – This search tab allows you to search for textbooks, reference books, fiction literature, e-books, dissertations, reports and more (by title).

This website – This tab allows you to search within the website content in a simple and efficient way.
