New Discovery service

On August 24, 2026, there will be a change to the service for searching electronic information resources at https://discovery.muni.cz/. The current service provided by EBSCO will be replaced by a new service provided by Clarivate/ExLibris. From a functional standpoint, there will be no major changes, and the service will continue to allow users to search electronic (and print) information resources and access available full-text articles. The biggest change will be the service’s visual appearance. 

EBSCO's old service will remain available until the end of the calendar year; the service's URL will be available on this portal's home page.
