Library's e-resources for study and research in 2024
Members of the VILNIUS TECH community have open access to 38 universal and specialised databases. The e-book databases include more than 500,000 book titles. The latest research and other relevant information is available in e-journal databases, of which there are about 32,000 journal titles available this year. In addition to books and journals, conference proceedings, normative documents, statistical data, standards, interactive spreadsheets, videos, and other electronic resources are available.
Please note that some databases do not provide full access to the content but rather a subscription to a specific collection of eBooks or journals. The description of each database indicates which publications or data are available to the VILNIUS TECH community. The electronic resources are selected and organised according to scientific fields and topics in the subject information section. The Temporary Access Databases section contains information on e-resources that VILNIUS TECH does not have a subscription to but to which the publishers have granted temporary access. The Temporary Access Databases section is constantly updated to reflect ongoing testing.
You can do a one-stop search of all available databases and other library resources via the VILNIUS TECH virtual library.
Access: the content of all databases can be accessed from a personal computer connected to the VILNIUS TECH computer network via VPN. When using the VPN service, two-factor authentication, i.e. confirmation in the mobile device application or by a call, is required for additional security.
Copying (downloading, printing) data from licensed databases is only allowed for personal research purposes and in small quantities. It is strictly forbidden to pass on such data to third parties, upload it to the internet or use it for commercial purposes. The disclosure of login data to third parties is also strictly prohibited. In Lithuania, copyright is protected by the Law on Copyright and Related Rights.
