These are the guides for the most central databases in Oamk from which you can check the database-specific instructions.
The basic principles of the information retrieval is presented in the guide Self-study material for information searches.
Help in information searching
Scientific publications are searched in databases.
Oamk has licensed several databases for use by students and staff. These databases can be accessed via the university network, through a VPN connection, or by logging in with Haka login. You can access databases via links provided in the library guides or in Oula-Finna. A database address found through a search engine usually does not lead to the correct access point and often does not include links to full-text content licensed by Oamk.
The library acquires e-resources both through the FinELib Consortium of the National Library of Finland and directly from the publishers or vendors. The license agreements for e-resources specify the rights and the restrictions on usage, such as printing, citing and creating links. Commercial use of e-resources is prohibited.
