Mobile Database Apps and Sites


The University Library eResources page now contains information on the availability of mobile sites and/or apps for the resources that you use. You will notice that next to each title within the eResources page there could potentially be one or more of the following icons:

Mobile sites vs. Apps: Mobile sites can be viewed on your device’s web browser; Apps, on the other hand, need to be downloaded onto your phone from the App store/Google Play store.

Because these database mobile websites and apps are gateways to subscription content they often require several steps to gain access to full text content, similar to when you attempt to access one of the libraries' databases from off campus. Where required, instructions can generally be found on the publisher website.
