I can't find an author when I search first and last name (full name).

Full name search typically does not work because most publications are published with the first initial only. Thus, please search by the surname. We are working to improve the people search and will release more features around searching authors.

I can’t find content that was in the old repository.

We have archived some former collections. If you need access to content from one of these collections, please let us know. Here is the list of the archived collections:

Chemical Process Technology
EFL Foundation
Bestuurshervorming
Maritime Archive
Colonial architecture and town planning
Beeldbank

I have new content, but it’s not in the repository. Where is it?

The repository continuously synchronizes data from Pure, the Current Research Information Management System, but sometimes there is a delay either because of a technical malfunction or a workflow issue. If it has been more than 24 hours, please contact library@tudelft.nl.

My photo is missing or I want to change the photo.

Please upload or replace your image here: iam.tudelft.nl. Under Publication Preferences, Photo must be checked (or allowed) under both Internet and TU Delft.

The AE new thesis isn't in the repository.

There is an issue affecting a small number of AE new theses and we are looking into improving this to resolve by mid-September. In the meantime, if your AE thesis is missing, please let us know and we can upload that manually.
