The Physics and Astronomy Library has two locations:
Trams and buses: urban schedules (in Italian)
An open platform for sharing research. Pioneer of digital open access, arXiv.org now hosts more than two million scientific articles in eight thematic areas, curated by a community of volunteer moderators.
A community that helps researchers share and find accurate academic information in high-energy physics.
The solution for identifying material properties and gaining fast, reliable insights to accelerate materials science research.

PROLA provides immediate access to the APS journals starting from their first volume. The subscription includes all journal content, except for the current year and the preceding three years.
In addition to being a unique peer-reviewed journal that integrates written articles with video experiments, it is also the leading producer and publisher of scientific and laboratory videos through its namesake platform. Its mission is to promote research and teaching in various scientific, medical, and engineering disciplines.
