DBIS - Database Information System
The Database Information System (DBIS) is a cooperative service for the use of scientific databases and supports you in finding the right databases for your research needs. DBIS lists all important information on databases, enables a quick and well-founded selection and allows individual views to be flexibly adapted. In addition to freely available database offers, all of our local database licenses, including access modalities, are listed and searchable here.
Databases by subject
As of October 15, 2024, DBIS has also been shining in a new design: With the latest version, the layout and user interface have been completely revised to enable a more modern and intuitive use.
