Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 3   EBP 0324 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Bibliographic Databases

Captions available

The idea

A bibliographic database holds records of published articles — subject headings, authors, titles and other details. The article itself may not be in the database.

In practice

A record found in a database whose full text sits behind a subscription.

Where people slip

Finding a record is not obtaining the article. Search access and full-text access are separate, and often separately paid for.
