Library staff is on duty (by remote working) and remain accessible to you for any questions you may have: contact us by mail or phone, see here Contacts. We are doing everything necessary to make sure our resources and research tools remain fully available. We’re also working with publishers to enhance simultaneous access to databases.

From the databases page you may access the specialist ones, such as Orbis, IEEE, Lexis, Westlaw, etc. or consult the scientific publications available on the most important international and interdisciplinary editorial sites (Elsevier, Springer, Wiley, etc.).

You can take advantage of the Italian Law content from these platform: the Wolters Kluwer’s Leggi d’Italia, Pluris and Giuffré. International Legal ebooks and handbooks are available from Oxford University Press. Read more here.

For biomedical research, we remind you Embase: a biomedical database that covers the most important international biomedical literature. Visible Body by Ovid, offers you the opportunity to study with a collection of interactive 3D models of human anatomy.
