Electronic Databases at Mohammed Bin Rashid Library

To complement our extensive publication collection, we provide free online access to more than 1 billion resources in the library. At the Mohammed Bin Rashid Library, we offer online browsing of periodicals, encyclopedias, videos, images, visual content, research papers, master's theses, doctoral dissertations, strategic reports, newspapers, books, sheet music, and e-books. To access all of these resources online, all you have to do is create an account using your Emirates ID via our website or mobile application, sign in from your computer, and then you can search for a specific topic, title, or author within the library’s digital catalogue. Or you can use one of our MACs located in the periodicals library on the ground floor.
Note: Electronic resources are only available to visitors who are physically present at the library. They cannot be accessed outside the library due to restricted Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.
