Midwifery: Additional databases
The following additional databases will suggest academic papers and research from across a range of subject areas.
Usually you can conduct either a basic or advanced search - an advanced search enables you to combine key words more effectively and to search within specific fields, such as author or title.
Sometimes you may find a journal article which is not available to BCU online, but you can always consider requesting it through a Inter-Library Loan request.
