What can you find in PRIMO?
Primo is a search engine that can help you find information for your studies or scientific research. It allows the user to find books, journals and other materials held at all of the libraries at Brno University of Technology. The very useful resources available to you via Primo include electronic journals and books, technical reports, final theses and much more.
Are you looking for a specific article?
The quickest way to find it is by using the advanced search function. Simply enter the information you know into the appropriate field, e.g. the author’s name, words from the title, or perhaps the year of publication. If the article is not found even after that, it’s possible that we don’t have a subscription to the publication in which it appears – in this case, expand the list of results to include articles without full text, and you may find the article you require. You will then need to ask the library to supply you with the article. Specific books are best searched for according to their ISBN.
