Presentation

O ALFA EDUCAÇÃO é formado por três unidades de biblioteca, localizadas em diferentes campus: Goiânia (Biblioteca Perimetral e Biblioteca Bueno) e São Paulo (Biblioteca FADISP).

Elas são gerenciadas pelo Sistema PERGAMUM, que organiza todas as informações dos documentos no catálogo online, facilitando a consulta de todo o acervo, de maneira geral ou filtrada por unidade específica.

A organização do acervo das bibliotecas é realizada por meio da Classificação Decimal Universal (CDU) de 2007, um sistema amplamente utilizado para classificar livros e materiais por assunto. Essa metodologia permite que o acervo seja organizado de maneira lógica e eficiente, agrupando conteúdos relacionados, facilitando o acesso e a busca rápida por informações.

O acervo das bibliotecas é constantemente atualizado e conta com mais de 64.000 volumes, incluindo:

Livros e periódicos (nacionais e internacionais);
Produção intelectual da UNIALFA;
DVDs;
Dissertations;
Bases de dados;
Outros materiais.

Com foco nos cursos da instituição, as bibliotecas abrangem as áreas de Ciências Exatas e da Terra, Ciências Humanas e Ciências Sociais Aplicadas.

Para tornar a pesquisa ainda mais prática, todos os campus oferecem terminais para consulta através do Consulta Web, que disponibiliza diferentes tipos de pesquisa:

Pesquisa Geral – por assunto, autor ou tema;
Pesquisa Avançada – usando operadores booleanos;
Autoridades – busca por autor (pessoa, instituição, coleção, série, etc.).

Além disso, você pode consultar o acervo físico facilmente nas plataformas:

Pergamum Consultation System
Pergamum Mobile System

O principal objetivo das Bibliotecas UNIALFA é garantir que alunos, professores, pesquisadores e funcionários tenham acesso a materiais técnico-científicos nas áreas de ensino e pesquisa. Também, as bibliotecas oferecem ambientes tranquilos e bem estruturados para estudos e pesquisas.

THE Collection Update Policy covers all forms of acquisition (purchase, donation, subscription and exchange) of everything that will be made available to students. The collections are selected and acquired based on the syllabus of the disciplines. This selection is made according to the basic and complementary bibliographies suggested in the Pedagogical Projects of the Courses by the coordinators and teaching staff, and suggestions from the librarians.
