The DFG funding programme "Specialized Information Services for Science" supports competence centers within the framework of supra-regional literature provision, which, among other things, acquire nationwide licenses for subject-specific electronic information resources. These information resources (journal packages, databases, etc.) are available to members of a discipline according to access criteria specifically agreed with the product providers.

• An overview of all specialised information services can be found at Webis

The following specialised information service is of particular relevance to physics in Bielefeld.

• FID Materials Science
