New: Springer journals for all NBS students

You now have access to the academic journals of the publisher Springer. There you will find current research articles, for example for term papers, project work and your thesis. You can read the articles online and download them as PDFs.

How to get access

1. Open Springer Nature Link.
2. On campus (Wi-Fi or computers at the Quarree study centre), Springer recognises you automatically, so you don't need to log in.
3. To check that it worked, scroll to the bottom of the page: it should say “NBS Northern Business School gGmbH”.

Good to know

• Journals only: NBS has licensed the Springer journals, not Springer e-books.
• Springer e-books are available through the Commerzbibliothek. To use them, log in to Springer via “Log in via an institution” and choose “Commerzbibliothek Hamburg”, not NBS. How to set up your Commerzbibliothek password is explained on the library page.
• No full text? Not every article on Springer Nature Link is part of our licence. If the bottom of the page does not say “NBS Northern Business School gGmbH”, you are not logged in via NBS.

Problems with access? Email bibliothek@nbs.de and, if possible, include a screenshot, the page address and the date and time. This helps us pass the problem on to Springer quickly.
