As announced on the website of the Thammasat University Libraries, to promote research and publications on all levels of study, the TU Libraries offer a free English abstract editing service. It is available for all TU students on the undergraduate and graduate school levels, as well as faculty and staff. The service is accessible at the webpage http://203.131.219.178/abs/.

The file with suggested corrections and improvements will be returned by e-mail within 3 business days. For more information, please call 02 613 3506 or write to pimtu@tu.ac.th.
