Not all databases comply with the technology of QuickSearch to enable users to cross-search multiple databases at the same time. As this technology is becoming established, more publishers are complying and Federation University Library will be adding these databases as they become available.

When searching with QuickSearch, the library recommends logging-in with student ID and password when prompted by the yellow banner, to gain wider access to results from databases, particularly when studying from off-campus

In the meantime, these non-compliant databases can be used in a 'native interface'. A list of non-compliant databases is available in the Quicksearch user guide or you can search for databases via the A-Z listing under the Search for individual databases.
