You can easily search for books, articles, magazines, university theses, conference materials, etc. needed for study or scientific work '''from one place'''.

# Collections of Charles University libraries 
# '''Most''' licensed databases subscribed to CU and selected open access e-resources (resources that cannot be connected to UKAŽ can be found [https://cuni.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/search?query=lds15,exact,EIZ%20not%20covered%20in%20UKA%C5%BD,AND&tab=DB_search&search_scope=DBsearch&sortby=title&vid=420CKIS_INST:DB&lang=en&mode=advanced&offset=0 here])

==When to work with UKAŽ?==
UKAŽ is suitable to use if:
* '''you are a complete beginner''' and do not orient yourself in the available information sources at CU,
* you want to do an '''overview search''' on a topic, 
* you need articles on a topic and there is no specialized database for your field or you do not know about such a database,
* '''you want to find a book or journal''' that you know are available at CU libraries.


We do not recommend using UKAŽ if you need to:
* '''work with special functions'''  of some databases (for example [https://cuni.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/fulldisplay?vid=420CKIS_INST:DB&search_scope=DBsearch&tab=DB_search&docid=alma9925591385206986&lang=en&context=L Web of Science] či [https://cuni.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/fulldisplay?vid=420CKIS_INST:DB&search_scope=DBsearch&tab=DB_search&docid=alma9925591401706986&lang=en&context=L Scopus]),
* you need a database which is '''not in UKAŽ''',
* you need to search only in one '''specific database''' (you can find list of databases which are available at Charles University [https://cuni.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/search?vid=420CKIS_INST:DB&lang=cs here]).
