Databases
See below for an alphabetical list of the electronic databases, e-book collections, and e-journal collections to which the library subscribes. Access to these e-resources is restricted to the students and staff of Brunel University for licensing and technical reasons. For more information on how to access the databases on-campus and off-campus see the How to login web page. Access to resources via Athens was discontinued after 31 July, 2010. Consequently we have changed the way you login to the e-Library.
A small number of e-resources require a unique username and password instead. These are given on the password page on our intranet. Please do not share them with anyone.

Dual access will be possible until Easter, when the CSA Illumina platform will be withdrawn from service.
