Research assistance
We encourage you to learn how to search UVic's online catalogue and databases to identify the books and articles you require. If you encounter difficulties finding materials, you can contact us for assistance formulating your search or to have resources sent to you.
Accessing databases from home
Access to most of the UVic Libraries databases and full text materials requires a Netlink ID and password. If you are a registered student and do not have a Netlink ID, obtain one. Contact us if you have any problems with this process.
