Databases
The Victoria University library subscribes to a number of online databases, which collectively cover a huge range of disciplines and subjects. Articles found through the VU library can viewed, downloaded and printed to assist you with your work.
The databases can be searched in two ways:
- collectively by subject through Library Search
- individually using the A–Z databases.
