Bates' Visual Guide is an online collection of videos demonstrating physical examination techniques.

In this resource, CSU subscribes only to the Bates' Physical Examination Videos – up to 8 hours of videos covering head-to-toe and systems-based physical examination techniques. (The resource includes a section on OSCE Clinical Skills Videos but this is not included in CSU's subscription.)

The videos are presented in the form of 18 volumes: most are based on the body systems, but there are others on head-to-toe assessments and one on General Survey and Vital Signs. Each volume is divided into several short chapters, and you can view the chapters individually or all together ("Play all"). Each system-based volume includes one or more videos on Anatomy Review, and at the end of each volume there is a video on Recording Your Findings.

The videos include closed captions and See also links to related material.

You can browse the videos or search using a Search box that appears at the top of every screen.

Note that Flash Player is not required: the videos will be served to your computer, smartphone, or device in a non-Flash format.

Titles cited in BIPE are accessible from major research libraries in Australia, Indonesia, the Netherlands and the United States. Each of the titles listed in BIPE are held in at least one of the following libraries:

• Australian National Library, Canberra
• Australian National University, Canberra

Biological Abstracts is an Ovid database of citations and abstracts in biology and the life sciences.

Subject coverage is international and includes biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, botany, pre-clinical and experimental medicine, pharmacology, zoology, agriculture, and veterinary science.

Content includes mainly abstracts and citations of journal articles.

Material in Biological Abstracts 1995 – 2003 is limited to 1995 – 2003, which are the years in which CSU Library had a subscription to this database.

Meanwhile, BIOSIS Previews is a similar Ovid database of citations and abstracts. It incorporates journal article material from Biological Abstracts and also has non-journal material including review literature, book references, meeting reports, and patents. Subject content covers the life sciences but is more along the lines of traditional biology (botany, ecology, zoology), interdisciplinary subjects (biochemistry, biomedicine, and biotechnology), and related areas such as instrumentation and methods.

Material in BIOSIS Previews 2002 – 2008 is limited to 2002 - 2008, which are the years in which CSU Library had a subscription to this database.

The articles in these two databases are mainly citation-and-abstract-only. Some articles have full-text attached but only where the article is free online or from a journal available within the Journals@Ovid Full Text CSU Subscribed database.

The link here provides CSU staff and students with concurrent searching of both databases. If you wish to search one of these databases individually, go to the Ovid databases menu and select the database to search. Searching these databases individually gives the advantage of being able to "Map Term to Subject Heading", which allows for matching to, and searching by, authorised subject terms.

BioOne is a global not-for-profit collaboration which brings together scientific societies, publishers, and libraries to provide access to critical, peer-reviewed research in the biological, ecological, and environmental sciences.

This is an entirely full-text collection of more than 150 journals, including some of the most important academic society journals in their respective disciplines. When CSU users first log in, they will access the Advanced Search screen, but the database can also be browsed by title, publisher, or "collection". (There are 3 "collections" - BioOne.1, BioOne.2, and Open Access. The first two collections represent packages of journals as added to the database, while the third is a small collection of open access journals.)

Users can set up their own profile, and make use of the My BioOne features, which include saved searches, search alerts, and lists of favourite journals.

Bridgeman Art Library is a commercial online image bank of images covering more than 8000 collections and 29,000 artists.  All images have been catalogued with full picture data, and key-worded to facilitate access, and the database includes quick and advanced search facilities.

Bridgeman Art Library claims to "represent museums, galleries and artists throughout the world by providing a central source of fine art for image users" and to provide "an archive of images drawn from collections throughout the world, all of which are available for licensing".

So its main purpose is to make images of artworks available for commercial use. This means that there are limitations on use, and CSU users accessing this resource will be taken via a webpage where they need to indicate that they agree with these conditions.

Bridgeman Art Library is similar to, but not exactly the same as, Bridgeman Education. There are differences in content and functionality. Bridgeman Education is recommended as it is a subscription resource.

Bridgeman Education is an image database of more than 300,000 images from 2,000 sources, 8,000 locations, and 30,000 artists. It is designed as a resource for educators and students who need to use images for teaching, presentations, special projects, or other education-related purposes. These images are sourced from major art collections, museums, and historical sites around the world.

While images can be downloaded and used for educational purposes, there are restrictions on use, and CSU users accessing this resource will be taken via a webpage where they need to indicate that they agree to these conditions.

Images include: photography; fine art; portraits; ceramics; engravings, lithographs, and prints; frescoes; sculpture; decorative arts; glassware; artefacts; and manuscripts. Subjects covered include architecture; archaeology and ethnography; arts; history; science; and medicine.

The database has various search options including Quicksearch, Advanced Search, and Search Indexes. The latter is a unique way of searching Bridgeman Education and involves searching via one of nine special search indexes.

The database is updated daily, and about 500 images are added each week.

Bridgeman Education is similar to, but not exactly the same as, The Bridgeman Art Library. There are differences in content and functionality. For example, Bridgeman Education includes the best image from The Bridgeman Art Library's large picture archive. Bridgeman Education is recommended as it is a subscription resource.

The Business Collection is an Informit database of entirely full-text material which covers all broad business fields, including: accounting, career development, commercial law, commodities, corporate governance, e-business, economics, employment, human resources, labour, management, marketing, occupational health, taxation, and unions.

Key titles include: Keeping Good Companies, Oxford Handbook of Human Resource Management, International Journal of Employment Studies, Waste Management and Environment, International Employment Relations Review, Training and Development in Australia, Economic and Labour Relations Review, International Journal of Organisational Behaviour, Management Case Study Journal, Institute of Public Affairs Review, and Economic Round-Up.

Coverage extends back as far as 1993.

Subject areas covered include:

• management
• finance
• international
• business
• economics
• accounting
• marketing, and
