Databases

The University Library licenses a wide range of academic subject databases. You can access all databases at any time within the campus network via eduroam. If you are working off-campus, a VPN connection (Group: FullTunnel) is required.
Note: Statista is an exception to this rule. To log in, please use your standard WHZ institutional credentials directly on the platform; a VPN connection is not necessary.

Databases provide access to individual articles, data collections, and statistics that go far beyond standard catalog searches. In many cases, full texts are directly available. If not, you will find all the bibliographic information you need to locate the item within the HSB collection or to request it via interlibrary loan.
