Did you already know? - Use e-media at home

20.12.2023 | Library

Do you prefer to read your textbooks online? Do you live too far away to borrow books locally? 

Then our e-media offer is just right for you. All you need is the  VPN client. You can download it on the intranet under IT services (for mobile phones, PCs or tablets). Log in to the VPN client with your university ID and you have access to all our e-books, e-journals, e-papers and specialised databases (from anywhere and around the clock). A library account is not required to use e-media.

All licenced e-books can be found in OPAC. Tip: select the publication type e-book when narrowing down the search, then no printed books will be displayed.

You can also find e-journals in the OPAC or alternatively via the Deggendorf electronic journal library.

The two e-papers New York Times and Süddeutsche Zeitung can be found under Newspapers & Magazines.

Specialised databases are sorted by subject and can be found under Research & Databases.

Another advantage: you don't need to pay attention to loan periods! However, the terms of use are important:
Conditions regarding downloads or printouts are determined by the provider.

  Use for own, scientific purposes

 Passing on content to third parties   

 Commercial use

 Systematic download

You can find detailed information on our e-media under E-Books, Newspapers & Magazines, Research & Databases.
