When searching for scholarly literature your first best option is our library discovery tool LibSearch.
LibSearch offers acces to all (e)books, (e)journals and (e)-articles and other materials in our library.
LibSearch also offers information on many collections of libraries and databases worldwide.
When searching for literature on a specific subject we recommend that you check our online LibGuide on Smart and systematic literature searches.
Should a search in LibSearch retrieve unsatisfactory results you may want to use one of our subject-specific databases listed below, or use Google Scholar.
Always check which content has been included in your specific database!
