Trial period for the database Overton!

Published: 2025-04-14

At the moment, the library has a trial on the database Overton. In Overton, you can find, among other things, policy documents, government guidelines, and reports from non-governmental organisations. The database can be used to search for grey literature. It can also be used to identify and measure the impact of research on policy issues, as references are extracted from the documents.

Trial account

Create a trial account. (The trial accounts have some limitations compared to a full account - most importantly trial users can only look at the first 3 pages / 60 records of the results of any search)

More information on the Overton website. Here you can find introductory videos.  

The trial period runs until the 7 May.
