Databases

On this page you will find:

  • Multidisciplinary citation databases, such as Scopus and Web of Science;
  • Specialized databases of the Natural Sciences Hub, divided by individual disciplines.

You can access these resources from the University network or, if you have SCU credentials, via the proxy service or Eureka.

Specialized resources
The databases we subscribe to have different access methods depending on whether you connect from within the University network or remotely.

From UniTo workstations, you have direct access via IP recognition — simply click on the resource title. From outside the University network, you can access through Eureka or the proxy service (the latter requires configuration).

We recommend consulting the page curated by the University Library System for detailed information on permitted and prohibited uses of electronic resources: Usage Regulations for the Electronic Resources of the University of Turin.

For assistance in using the databases, you can contact the individual library accounts or write to help.biblioricerchesdn@unito.it
