Many of the resources produced by the UOC for its courses can be found in the Library's search engine.

See what teaching materials are available for a course by selecting the UOC Learning resources option from the drop-down list in the search box.

Type the keywords in the search box. For example, "corporate communication".

The Learning Resources filter at the side can be used to refine your search even further; select a course name and you will see all the resources available for that classroom.

Then, click on the Apply Filters button.

View the resource you are interested in by clicking on the Available Online button.

If, on the other hand, you want to get more information, select the title of the resource to open a new page with additional information. On the screen that opens up, click Available Online / UOC Learning Resources to view the resource.

When you use the Library's search engine, information from most databases will already appear in the results. However, there are some exceptions, such as legal information databases like Aranzadi.

To access their contents, you need to enter the platform. To do this, type the database's name into the Library's search engine. For example, "Aranzadi". You will find it among the first search results.

Then, click on the Available Online button to consult the selected database

If you want to know which databases are available, go to the Digital collection by field page.

To refine your results, use Filter by study area. Open the drop-down list to select the study area.

Or, if you already know the name of the platform, type its name in the search engine on the page.
