BrowZine - an easy way to find and access online journals

The library service provides access to a large collection of electronic journal titles, covering all aspects of medicine, health care, nursing, management, mental health and the allied health professions. These journals are available from anywhere with an Internet connection.

The easiest way to access all of our journal holdings is via the BrowZine site. BrowZine is an easy to use service that will allow you to:

• Search our journal holdings for specific titles
• Browse our journal subscriptions to see what titles we hold in your specialty / areas of interest
• Browse table of contents of our journals and link straight through to the full text of most articles

To access BrowZine follow the links below:

• Northamptonshire Healthcare staff follow this link: https://browzine.com/libraries/1776/
• Northampton General Hospital staff follow this link: https://browzine.com/libraries/1775/

You will need an OpenAthens account to access most of the full text. If you don't have one you can register online here. There is a quick guide to OpenAthens registration on our web site.

We recommend you use BrowZine if you are searching for a particular journal title, however if you are doing a more general subject search you can use the NHS Knowledge and Library Hub search or an appropriate database.

We have also created a Browzine user guide to help you get the most out of our electronic journals collection.
