KASB
...gives access to about 40 e-resources and databases - you can browse the entire list of links in the 'links' section of our homepage.

Some databases are marked with the symbol of a key . This means that you need to be on the KA campus or have signed up for remote access to view these bases from anywhere else.  

Two databases that can be searched via remote access are:

E-brary
E-brary enables you to access more than 46,000 subject-specific, academic books, journals and reports in full text formate. Subject areas include: Business, Marketing and Economics / Computers and Information Technology / Education / Engineering and Technology / Health, Biomedical and Clinical Sciences / History and Humanities / Life and Physical Science / Social and Behavioural Science - and the collections are continually growing. In addition to these text-based documents, E-brary also includes a collection of maps.

Britannica Online 
The most extensive electronic resource in English. Amongst other things, you can access more than 120,000 articles searchable according to subject or alphabet, a dictionary with definitions, an up-to-date world map as well as audio and video clips.

Check out all electronic resources that are accessible remotely.

 

How do you get remote access?
You only need to show up at KASB and fill in a form at the information desk. After about 5 days, you can access the databases remotely. Then go to the start page and log in - or read the instructions for help.

Please note that, due to license regulations, remote acces can only be set up for students and employees at the school of architecture, KA.
