# Welcome

Welcome to the media library instruction of the Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences. In this online instruction you will receive answers to the questions from the intro, among other things.

After following this instruction you will have sufficient knowledge of the services of the media library to find the information you need for your studies.

## Rotterdam UAS has various sources of information

The most important sources within the university are:

START - START stands for STudy And Research Tool. It's the starting point for all your (desk) research. For even better results you can search the databases - search directly by subject or type of information. See also the databases section.

Information sources per study programme - Online resources for every study programme aimed at your area of expertise

You get access to these sources via the library website. You can also use these sources at home or from your internship location, on the condition that you are logged on to the Rotterdam UAS network. You can also install the Library Access plugin, then you'll only have to log on once.
