Commercial databases in engineering are listed in Literature-RoutledgeStudies-Information

http://www.saur.de/index.cfm?id=0000010424
http://www.amazon.com/EngineeringTechXtra might be useful to you, as it cross-searches31 different
collections (databases) in technology, and thereby facilitates access to
over 4 million items on technological subjects, (but by no means all) many
of which are freely available in full text.

LIBRARY CONSORTIA
What is Library Consortia?

It is cooperation among the libraries especially now it is being used for collective
bargaining for purchase of information resources by which thei buying power
increases. In turn, they are able to procure more documents / journals with the
same financial resources. They are able to provide access to increased number of
journals.

INDEST (Indian National Digital Library in Science and Technology) Engineering

colleges are subscribing e-journals through INDEST at discounted rates ranging
between 20 80%.

CSIR consortia It is able to provide access to all the journals purchased by the CSIR
labs in electronic form.
