Using a database

Many databases offer the option to save research results and send them via email or save them to an account. Please follow the specific database’s guidelines for more information.

Using CD-ROM databases

You can save the results of your research, print them, or have them sent to you via email. A manual on how to export data from the CD-ROM server is available in German here: https://ub.fau.de/wp-content/uploads/anleitungen/prometheus.pdf

Note that printing the results of your research may not be possible at every location in the library.

• In the catalog, you will find articles from many electronic resources licensed by the library, as well as others. After entering search terms into the catalog, access the Articles & more tab.
• If you are looking for articles on a specific topic, we recommend to first start looking in databases and bibliographies.
  If you have not searched a database that provides full texts, you can then check if an article from a specific journal is available in the catalog, or in the Electronic Journals Library (EZB). If the University Library (UB) owns a license to the respective journal, you should be able to access it from there.
• Are you looking for a specific article from a particular journal and want to know if it is available at the UB?
  Start by searching the catalog or the Electronic Journals Library (EZB) using the journal’s title to see if the UB owns or has licensed the volume in question.

In the simple search or in the All Fields search box in the advanced search, you can search for titles and subject headings simultaneously, regardless of whether you mean the title of the work or the topic it concerns (Subject Heading).

• A title word is a word that must be included in the book’s title. It is written in the correct grammatical form of its respective language. Abbreviations can also be used and are marked with a truncation mark (). For example, automat can be used to find hits such as automat, automatic, oder automatisch.

• A subject heading is a standardized term (usually in German and singular) that describes the content of a medium, regardless of its title. For example: Using the subject heading “Tropischer Regenwald,” you will find the book Brazil and Climate Change.

Hint: If you don’t need a specific edition, leave out the year of publication when entering your key words. By doing this, you will increase the probability to find suitable hits.
