Explore our research space where you will find help and updated news related to your field of research. Also, you will have access to all the services we offer to facilitate your research work. 

Resources

One of the pillars of library services is access to a vast collection of electronic and physical resources. Libraries offer access to specialized databases, scientific journals, e-books and other digital resources. In addition, they have an extensive collection of printed books and other materials, accessible through the Trobes online catalog. The RODERIC repository is another valuable tool where you can find academic papers and research documents from our university. Remember that to consult the subscribed electronic resources, you must configure the VPN if you are accessing from outside the University.

Historical Collection

The Historical Library of the University of Valencia has the Pérez Bayer Research Room, an exclusive space for consulting its valuable heritage collection. This collection includes manuscripts, incunabula, rare books, and documents from the 16th to the 20th centuries. The library offers various specific services for researchers, such as bibliographic information, guided tours, and classes in the library. This space and its services are designed to facilitate access to and the study of these unique and valuable materials.

On the other hand, the Historical Archive of the University of Valencia preserves historical documents that span from the mid-16th century to the 20th century. In the archive's facilities, researchers can consult this documentation and receive guidance on how and where to find the necessary information for their research. Additionally, assistance is provided in the use of the various available information sources, thus ensuring comprehensive support in the research process.

Loan

To facilitate the work of researchers, the libraries provide the interlibrary loan service, which allows access to resources that are not available in their collection and the service of supplying articles in pdf to e-mail. It also facilitates the research loan, which allows you to check out up to 340 copies for 3 years of the books acquired for your research project. 

Publishing

The libraries of the Universitat de València advise researchers on the choice of journals where to publish (and where not to publish) their work, on the use of institutional repositories for the dissemination of their publications and on the management of copyright and research data. In addition, they promote open access, helping researchers to comply with open access policies required by funders. 

APCs

The libraries of the Universitat de València also offer substantial support in the management of article processing costs, known as Article Processing Charges (APC). 

Guides

Likewise, the libraries are responsible for the development of guides and tutorials that facilitate access to and effective use of their resources and services. These guides cover topics such as efficient information search, reference management, and the use of digital tools for research, as well as different aspects of scientific authorship (standardized signature, identifiers and profiles, standardized curriculum vitae and copyright). 

Accreditation and Six-year periods

In addition, a bibliometric reporting service is offered, especially useful for researchers who are in the process of accreditation and evaluation for the six-year research period. These reports provide detailed analyses on the impact and visibility of researchers' publications. 

Edition

The libraries of the Universitat de València offer specific support to publishers of scientific journals on the different aspects of scientific publishing such as publication through OJS and its dissemination. Turia is the open access journal portal where the publications are hosted.

Scientific Production Portal

Finally, the management of the UV Scientific Production Portal is another key service, which allows researchers to register and disseminate their work, facilitate collaboration and ensure the integrity and accessibility of institutional scientific production.
