Overview

The Luxembourg Learning Centre offers print books, a small collection of print journals and a broad collection of electronic resources like e-books and e-journals on topics pertaining to sustainability. All print and electronic resources can be found via the a-z.lu catalogue.

Sustainability is a cross-cutting and highly transdisciplinary topic: it affects, directly or indirectly, all disciplines taught at the university and the various institutional departments and services. This guide was created as a reference on this strategic topic.
