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. Some licence agreements may exclude access to databases and their contents from certain countries. It is your responsibility to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant licence agreements - for more information see the copyright web page on databases - contact copyright@brunel.ac.uk if you have any questions.
For more information on how to access the databases on-campus and off-campus see the e-Library web page. 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 credentials with anyone.

DAAI
DAAI contains over 130,000 annotated references from more than 500 design and craft journals and newspapers published from 1973 onwards, and data on over 50,000 designers, craftspeople, studios, workshops and firms on the new ProQuest integrated platform (this has the option to search other databases, too). This abstract only database is updated monthly. Use Article Linker (AL) to check for full text online sources.

Datastream
Datastream provides access to company, economic and financial data from around the world, over many years. It is available on two bookable PCs in the data room on floor 2 of the Library. You can book an hour long session through the Help Desk. No off campus access is available for this database. Datastream is a complex database and all users will require an introductory training session before using it. If you require access to this database and training has not been arranged through your school, please contact your Subject Librarian.
Drama Online
Drama Online provides access to approximately 390 full-text plays by both new writers as well as established names in playwriting history. Search by playwright, genre or time period. Additional tools include ‘Character Grids’ showing which characters appear in what scenes and which lines they speak. It should be noted that this is a trial (until 21st May 2013) of the Beta site and so is a work in progress – the final launch site will contain much more primary and secondary content. Please feel free to leave feedback by clicking on ‘FAQs’ via the library home page.
