Our A-Z database overview has had an update!

From now on it’s called Xplora Databanken

The Xplora databases contain an extensive collection of e-books, online (magazine) articles, videos and visual material.

What's new?

  • Access to databases has been simplified
  • The contents of a database can be seen at a glance
  • Direct access to instruction manuals and videos
  • Report a malfunction directly using this button:

  • Searching is easier thanks to search filters (Unfortunately at the moment only possible in Dutch, opt for ‘Economie’ at ‘Vakgebieden’ to find Business related databases)

 

Look for the databases with this symbol (‘in English’)

Please feel free to contact me if you should have any questions.
