Database Trials

The Northeastern University Library Is Currently Offering Trial Access to These Resources:


The Library is currently offering trial access to Dimensions.   Dimensions is a large database that indexes peer reviewed journal literature, conference proceedings, books, book chapters, preprints, awarded grants, policy documents, datasets, patents, clinical trials, and more. With the breadth of content indexed in the database, and the robust reporting and analysis tools included, Dimensions can be a very useful tool for understanding and reporting on the research and scholarship produced at Northeastern, as well as a benchmarking tool for comparison with other institutions.

Dimensions Trial: https://trial.dimensions.ai/ (Use this link to access the trial) and click on "Register for free" using your Northeastern email address.

If you have an existing free account through app.dimensions.ai, this is a separate Dimensions platform, and you will not be able to access the trial there. Use the provided trial.dimensions.ai link.   You should see, once you have created your trial account, that you now have 15 filters on the left hand side, and at the left side, top, it should say, Dimensions trial version.

There is a lot of useful material at the Dimensions Learning Center

The trial for Dimensions will end on November 13, 2026.
