The GED adopted a new e-resource acquisition policy in January 2020. All EHESS, EPHE, INED, and FMSH subscriptions were renewed. Other purchases and subscriptions will augment these resources, which will be developed to complement the GED’s print collection.

The GED’s electronic resources are accessed via the GED catalogue.

Online subscription resources can be accessed by Campus Condorcet residents whose members institutions have registered them in the identity management system..

Students from member universities can access the GED’s electronic resources via the portals at their home institution (e.g Domino pour Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne and Virtuose+ for Paris 3 Sorbonne Nouvelle)
