The Vaal University of Technology Libraries subscribes to online databases that can be accessed on site or remotely by all registered students and university staff. This is in addition to the books and printed collection in our libraries and it supplements the printed resources in the library. They contain bibliographic references to academic, peer-reviewed journal articles in your field of study, as well as references to theses, books and chapters which are not necessarily available in the library. Many of these databases also contain full text articles which can be viewed, printed and downloaded.
