Display of textbooks in CLICAPS
The CLICAPS catalog lists recommended textbooks and course materials with a  icon. By clicking it, you obtain additional information, e.g. in which learning units the title is recommended.
Background information
Using the course catalogue of ETH Zurich, we have searched through all lectures of the D-CHAB, D-BIOL and D-MATL departments for literature recommendations, and entered this information into our database. In addition to the literature that is listed in the course catalogue, we also have investigated which books are recommended in the lecture and in lab courses, so that we can make them available in the library.
CLICAPS and the Textbook Portal think ahead
CLICAPS and the Textbook Portal consider the date of your search, i.e. if there is now autumn or spring semester, and display the appropriate textbook information. The semester breaks afterwards are included as well, so that you have available the textbook information also during your exam preparations.
