Latest licences via proxy server<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Researchers at these institutions can access our latest licence offers quickly and unbureaucratically. Access is automatically authorised from the networks of our user group via a proxy server - campus-wide and via VPN without login. This service is currently mainly used for temporary test access to new licence products.<\/p>

The proxy server is operated by\u00a0Competence Centre for Licensing (KfL)\u00a0<\/a>- our service partner for the licensing of electronic products.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Individual users<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Researchers who are not currently affiliated with any of the above-mentioned institutions can also benefit from our services. Those who belong to disciplines of our\u00a0Range of subjects<\/a>\u00a0or related areas has the option of registering as an \"individual user\".<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Interested parties must register for this\u00a0register with the FID licence portal<\/a>. The prerequisites for access as an individual user are residence in Germany or membership of a German research project.<\/p>

Registration as an \"individual user\" is only required in the rarest of cases. For members of the above-mentioned institutions, access via their networks is the preferred method.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

national licences<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The Specialised Information Service for the Middle East has been able to release almost all of the products acquired to date as a national licence. They are therefore available to all German researchers. Redirection via the proxy server is unnecessary for these FID licences.<\/p>

Individual users must\u00a0register with the national licences portal<\/a>. This registration is then valid for all national licences.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
