DATABASES OF THE LIBRARY SYSTEM
The databases of FGV's Library System cover a wide range of knowledge areas and are made available to researchers, professors, and students to be used in their academic and research activities. Currently, there are about 300 databases, some of which are public domain, with no cost for access to their content, which can be accessed by anyone connected to the Internet, wherever they may be. However, many important databases are only available through contracts (usually charged as annual subscriptions), and their content can only be accessed by the community of researchers, professors, and students of FGV. There are several tutorials on the FGV Library System website with detailed instructions on how to use these databases. A student who is at one of FGV's facilities can freely access the contents of restricted-access databases. If they are not at FGV, as long as they are connected to the Internet, access is still possible, but LOGIN/ PASSWORD must be provided, using the FGV Access Account that every FGV student possesses.
