What is a database?
The databases you can consult from the Virtual Library are collections of electronic documents and texts that have been indexed. There are two kinds of database available:
- Bibliographic databases: they provide basic information about the document (author, title, edition, date of publication, abstracts or reviews), but they do not offer access to the original text.
- Full-text databases

How can I change the search engine language?
The first time you open the search engine, the interface will appear in Catalan.

Choose the language of your choice in the pop-up window.
You can also set your preferred default language by going to El meu compte (My account) / Dades personals (Personal details) / Idioma per defecte de la interfície (Default interface language).
