Databases contain a mostly thematically oriented selection of journals, e-books, standards, company information, statistics and many other types of information. To get an overview of the university library's licensed databases, you can find an overview in the database information system (DBIS) here.

You can sort the databases in DBIS both thematically by subject area and alphabetically.

To enable the access from home to a database service of the university library, some database providers guarantee access to their database via VPN. VPN creates an encrypted connection (via IPSec) between the dial-in point (e. g. the home network) and the HTW-Berlin network, which guarantees a secure data transport.
The data center provides you a VPN client that you can install on your computer and gives a detailled instruction  how to install and log in to it.
