What is a Database?

Databases contain references to journal articles, chapters in books and in some cases, theses and dissertations. Some databases also include the full text of the articles and other items.

The UKZN subscribes to a number of databases that provides its members with access to a collection of peer -reviewed journal articles from different journals that can be searched by computer.

What if journal is not available at UKZN Library?

The ILL office is located on the Ground floor of the EG Malherbe library. Forms are available for filling in or email the relevant ILL office.

On the national system SABINET, the collection SACat indicates what books are in which library in the country.
