In this paper we identify and show, through the application of statistical techniques, unidimensional and multidimensional indicators, some of the characteristics revealed by the users community of the Madrid Carlos III University in their use of databases. The information for this study has been obtained from the analysis of the accesses made in the Access to Databases Service of the Carlos III University library, paying a special attention to the behaviour of the teaching departments during the 1995-1998 period. The evolution in the use of on-line databases is valued and the indicators, which typify the trends and patterns of use from the part of those users, are analysed. Some of the criteria highlighted by the interaction between the user, new technologies and electronic sources of information in university libraries.
