Your Trusted Knowledge Base

Germany’s leading platform for digital academic resources is about to launch: Inlibra.

By combining the content and functionality of Nomos eLibrary, Beck eLibrary, and VDI Verlag-eLibrary, Inlibra will create a powerful new platform. It will provide libraries, research institutions, and businesses with central access to premium academic and professional resources from over 100 distinguished publishers. All content can be searched via a unified interface and permanently cited. The forward-looking platform will also feature AI enhancements.

You will benefit from consolidated reporting, a centralised backend, and standardised metadata, meaning less administrative effort is required.
