The Web of Science by Clarivate Analytics contains references of international journal articles from all scientific disciplines.
It includes data from eight citation indexes:
- Science Citation Index Expanded
- Social Sciences Citation Index
- Arts and Humanities Citation Index
- Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Science (CPCI-S)
- Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Social Science & Humanities (CPCI-SSH)
- Book Citation Index - Science (BKCI-S)
- Book Citation Index - Social Science & Humanities (BKCI-SSH)
- Emerging Sources Citation Index
Chemical indexes:
- Current Chemical Reactions (CCR-EXPANDED)
- Index Chemicus (IC)
Citation indexes offer a unique search method to find later-published journal articles, in which a publication is cited. Coverage: daily updates

The Catalogue of Life is a comprehensive, global index of species. It consists of a species checklist and taxonomic hierarchy. The Catalogue holds information on the names, relationships and distributions of over 1.6 million species around the world. Related databases: Species+, Global Species
F1000Research is an Open Science publishing platform offering immediate publication (open access) of articles, posters and slides in different subject areas. Articles, posters and slides are not peer-reviewed. However, upon publishing, experts can write a review on an article. Related databases: Radboud Repository, PubMed
A digital journal with peer-reviewed videos of experiments. The videos cover almost all exact sciences, from biology and neurosciences to physics. Medical topics are covered as well.
RUQuest is a search engine for the collection of the RU University Library, Nijmegen, and for collections of other libraries worldwide.
RUQuest contains printed and digital books, periodicals, journal articles, book chapters and more.

The Digital Atlas of Economic Plants presents a global overview of plant parts that have an economic value and are offered for sale at markets and in shops across the world. They include plants that are used as food, spices, stimulants, medicines, poisons, offerings, dyes, tannins, building materials and ground coverings.
The atlas is published as a combination of book and website. The website consists of a freely accessible and a limited-access part. In the freely accessible part, you can browse through the Atlas and view photographs in small format. The limited-access part is not available. Related resource: Oxford Dictionary of Plant Sciences
The Encyclopedia of Life (EOL) is a global partnership between the scientific community and the general public. It is an encyclopaedia that summarises all information about species and links this information based on Wiki technology. New species are added immediately to the encyclopaedia. Extinct species are also described. The website invites scholars and amateurs to contribute. Related resource: Encyclopedia of Life Sciences
eLS (formerly known as the Encyclopedia of Life Sciences) is a monthly-updated reference work containing over 5,000 peer-reviewed articles written by leaders in the field. eLS articles provide information, also for the non-specialist, on biochemical and taxonomic information, acronyms, synonyms, units and other technical data.

A comprehensive encyclopedia about insects. It sets the standard in entomology, covering all aspects of insect anatomy, physiology, evolution, behavior, reproduction, ecology, and disease, as well as issues of conservation and management.
Encyclopedia of Neuroscience is a reference work with literature reviews on molecules, diseases, mechanisms, concepts in Neuroscience. Related recommendation: Current Protocols in Neuroscience
In this encyclopaedia you can find peer-reviewed information, that focuses, in particular, on the fundamental science of biological structures and systems, the use of chemical and biological techniques to elucidate that science, and the applications of this knowledge in areas, such as drug discovery, sensor technology and catalysis. Major topics covered include:
Bio molecules within the cell.
Chemistry of biological processes and systems.
Chemical Biology of cellular compartments.
Synthetic molecules as tools for Chemical Biology.
All mandatory literature for biology and environmental sciences is available for inspection in the Library of Science. A number of books is also available as an e-book! You can download them from the e-books for biology page.
