Electronic journals (e-journals) are journals that are available exclusively in digital form. Articles from e-journals are accessible online in full text.
The Electronic Journals Library is a database that provides fast, structured and uniform access to scientific full-text journals.
Access to full-text articles is indicated by different colored traffic light symbols:
| Green: | The full text of the journal is freely accessible. |
| Yellow: | The journal is licensed to the participating library and is accessible in full text to users of that library. |
| Yellow/Red: | Part of the published volumes of the journal are licensed in full text at the Participant Library. |
| Red: | The journal is not subscribed and therefore not usable in full text. However, tables of contents and often abstracts are usually available free of charge. |
All electronic journals available for TU Ilmenau can be used campus-wide by members of the university via eduroam. Off-campus access is possible:

All licensed databases can be found via the Database Infosytem (DBIS). Access is free of charge and available campus-wide.
