VTI Library and Information Centre (BIC) collects, organizes, stores and disseminates information in the field of transport research.
BIC
BIC has the national responsibility for providing information within the area of transport and for making the research results available. The special library is one of the largest in Europe in this area. BIC has a broad contact network both nationally and internationally.
About 140,000 references are searchable in the database TRAX and a list of journals is in the database Periodicals. The two databases are available at the web site Transguide.
BIC is certified according to ISO 9001.
International co-operation
The VTI Library and Information Centre is the Swedish national centre cooperating with Transportation Research Board. This implies, for example, that the BIC supplies the international database TRID with information of Swedish transport research and communicates with member organizations. BIC is also the Swedish national centre for the OECD database ITRD.
Services
Regardless of where you live in Sweden you can borrow literature free of charge and order copies of articles. However, we do not lend any material to persons living abroad. Libraries outside Sweden may borrow literature if we have established contacts with them. We also offer information searches and current awareness service on commission. Please contact us for a cost estimation.
