FID Licences

As part of the current DFG funding, FID4SA also ensures the nationwide supply of digital media subject to licensing. Together with the Kompetenzzentrum Lizenzierung (KfL) FID4SA has selected suitable products, negotiated with the providers and licensed them. These resources are available to researchers and students in South Asia-related fields in Germany.

 

Access to the licensed FID4SA products is via the CrossAsia portal and is possible after individual registration. Registration information can be found on the CrossAsia website (German).
