Several database providers offer the possibility to launch a search in multiple databases on a single search platform. For cross-searching databases on different platforms you can use our MetaSearch by subject page.
The platforms below can only be accessed from a computer in one of the Wageningen UR buildings or by Wageningen UR users who are logged in to My Library
As from 1 March 2009, the ERL WebSPIRS platform is no longer
