The library was established in 1949 at the initiative of university teachers and researchers and with the great support of the political leadership of the country at that time; in all those years, it functioned significantly different from other academic and special libraries. Despite its function as a university library, through its innovative approach and indepth international contacts, the library effectively served a wider purpose, i.e. as information and library support for the economy of the country and as a driving force for special libraries. The innovative approach of CTK’s operation in that period was mainly reflected in the fact that the user with his information needs was put into the focus of the library’s operation. An example of such a userfriendly service was home borrowing of individual issues of periodicals, which was not a common practice of other libraries. From the perspective of involvement in international professional networks, the role of the CTK in the professional association IATUL was of special importance. Today, after major social and technological changes, the CTK is a modern university library, which has retained its characteristic innovation and involvement in international cooperation. Innovation in the CTK today is reflected primarily in the important role of the library in facilitating an open national research and educational infrastructure; and international cooperation is primarily reflected in the active role of the CTK in professional organizations and forums such as LIBER, European Open Science Cloud or Coalition SV prispevku sta opisana delovanje in razvoj Centralne tehniške knjižnice Univerze v Ljubljani (CTK) od ustanovitve do leta 1991. Knjižnica, ki so jo leta 1949 ustanovili na pobudo visokošolskih učiteljev in raziskovalcev ter ob veliki podpori političnega vodstva tedanje države, se je v vseh letih svojega delovanja bistveno razlikovala od drugih visokošolskih in specialnih knjižnic v tistih časih. Poleg opravljanja dejavnosti univerzitetne knjižnice je uspešno sledila širšemu namenu, in sicer kot informacijska podpora gospodarstvu in pri razvoju specialnih knjižnic. CTK si je ves čas svojega delovanja prizadevala, da je uresničevala želje uporabnikov, kolikor se je le dalo. Tako je npr. izposojala na dom posamezne številke revij, kar ni bila praksa knjižnic. Danes je CTK po velikih družbenih in tehnoloških spremembah predvsem sodobna univerzitetna knjižnica, ki zagotavlja odprto nacionalno raziskovalno in izobraževalno infrastrukturo. Pri tem so ji v pomoč strokovne organizacije in forumi, kot so npr.
