Libraries
The libraries offer a set of collections and services to users within UPMC and, for certain science sections of the BIUSJ (Jussieu Inter-university Science Library), to members of Université Paris-Diderot and the Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris.
The Jussieu Inter-university Science Library and the SCDM (Common Medical Reference Service) provide access to a large number of scientific and biomedical databases as well as to a vast choice of unabridged journals and electronic books.
These resources can be consulted on-site or from any distant computer (from home for example) by members of UPMC (teachers, researchers, students, staff). Freely accessible via the internet, a digital set of scientific documents from the 18th and 19th centuries (Jubilothèque
) demonstrate the richness of the heritage housed by the libraries. In parallel to housing reference material, the libraries are developing a range of services for users, of which the most notable is training in information management.
For more information and to consult the libraries’ catalogue, see Jubil, the reference portal of UPMC.
