Resources & collections
There are multiple ways of finding, accessing and using library resources.
- Most library resources can be found through Library Search a tool designed to search across the range of library databases.
- Resources can also be accessed through their individual platforms, databases and collections, these are listed below.
- Library eJournals can be found through Google Scholar by clicking on the "Find Fulltext@VU Library" link when it appears to the right of your search results. This will happen automatically while on campus but may need to be set up as "Library Links" under Scholar Settings to work from off-site.
- Your VU Staff/Student ID number and Library Pin is required to access online resources while off-site.
