Fundamental changes in the functioning of the library were brought about by computerization initiated in 1990, when library employees Wojciech Charkin and Lech Zięborak developed the "Concept of computerization of library and information processes in the Main Library". The software was selected, IBM PC computers were configured and installed, and a computer network diagram in the library was developed.
After the university was taken over by the Operational Group of the Ministry of Education and the election of the University of Technology authorities, three people were employed to open the Central Library (from 1950 the Main Library). Due to the destruction of the central part of the Main Building, a three-person team functioned on the ground floor of the side wing of the building in two rooms and a hall, where on 66 m2 there was a storage, an office, a reading room and a lending library, and books were also placed on the floor.
The Gdańsk University of Technology Library was established in 1904, together with the University of Technology (then Königliche Technische Hochschule zu Danzig, during the Free City period and under the occupation with a changing name). It had a diverse book collection, corresponding to the diversity of the university's educational offer, which provided education in both the field of technical subjects and the humanities.
Reporting conferences are one of the ways to implement the recommendations for monitoring the progress of the "Initiative of Excellence - Research University" program. They are organized by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education with the support of members of the international team of experts evaluating the competition applications.
