Electronic resources are journals, books and other materials such as photo archives, museum catalogs, encyclopedias, dictionaries, audio files, videos, etc. that are provided through large databases , either at the level of bibliographic reference or in full text.
Electronic resources provide a modern and easy-to-use digital environment for searching and retrieving information and content, essential at the various stages of the educational and research process, while at the same time facilitating the creation of bibliographic references.
Electronic databases provide a multitude of advantages, including:
- targeted content search (topic, title, author, keywords, chronology, etc.).
- conducting your research remotely, without being in the Library.
- printing and/or downloading articles.
- the content is constantly available even when the Library is closed.
The Library provides its members:
electronic resources through the Heal-Link portal, as member of the Association of Hellenic Academic Libraries (Heal Link), as well as individual databases with more specialized content, and
electronic resources through subscriptions of Panteion University that respond to more specialized needs of the Panteion community.
