The Data Lab is a dedicated room in the Library building, where you can reserve a study place for using its facilities to access specialized financial databases that are not available via regular student workspaces in the rest of the library: Refinitiv Workspace, Datastream, and SDC. The use of the Data Lab and financial databases is supported via online guides and the FAQ.
Please note: It is also possible to access the databases from home or on your own (Windows) laptop. We strongly encourage you to do so. See here for more information about accessing LSEG/Refinitiv Workspace, Datastream and SDC from your own computer.
If you do not have a Windows laptop, you can reserve a study place in the Data Lab to access the databases on the PC’s there. You need to have LSEG/Refinitiv account before you reserve the Data Lab.
Reservations for the Data Lab through the booking system are currently unavailable. To reserve the Data Lab, please email your reservation request to lis-financialdatasupport@tilburguniversity.edu
Only Tilburg University students can use the Data Lab. The Data Lab is open during regular Library opening hours and general library rules apply.
Read the information on the User guides and notes webpage about how to access Refinitiv/Datastream and SDC.
Also note that even when you have scheduled a time slot in the Data Lab, please first report to the library information desk at the designated time.
