In partnership with EBSCO, your BACP members’ research portal will be getting a design updated this Summer with new, intuitive ways to refine, navigate, like and share search results. It’ll take an accessibility-first approach for cross-device research on desktops, tablets and mobiles.

Modern results lists

Quickly see which results are peer-reviewed, click to open the full text of an article in PDF or HTML and download items for offline viewing.

Personalised dashboards

Keep track of searches, folders, projects and items liked in your virtual and personalised home space.

Greater citing, sharing and liking options

You can cite, like, add to project, share and download items directly from the results list. From here you’ll have options to copy, email and export items, as well as share to Google Drive or create a link to share on other platforms.

For a step-by-step guide on how to navigate the new look research portal, please watch this online tutorial.
