Metasearch offers you a single access point to searching a vast range of our library's resources. Metasearch covers the following sources:
- our library catalogue, including E-Books
- thousands of journals and publishers' offers
- all EBSCO databases
- Web of Science
- Scopus
- JSTOR
- WISO
- and many more
The search functionalities are consistent with EBSCOhost databases.
In our database lists, you can check whether a database's content is integrated in Metasearch by looking for this icon:
Many of us are waiting for a «one stop-shopping» solution, but even with Metasearch we are not quite there. For several reasons, many databases are not contained in Metasearch:
- ProQuest (ABI/Inform Complete, Sociological Abstracts u.a.)
- Factiva
- Beck Online
- Swisslex
- company information, financial and statistical databases
Guest Access:
As a guest you may get guest access to our Metasearch as well. Please bear in mind that only non-commercial content (e.g. library catalogue) is available.
Off-campus access for University members:
If you would like to use Metasearch off campus, you will need a VPN connection to access licensed full texts and e-books.
