Bournemouth University

Bournemouth is a modern University, with seven distinctive schools of study - each reflecting a major area of economic growth in the world today and offering courses aimed at preparing you for the future.


The Institute of Health and Community Studies (IHCS) is one of the University´s seven academic schools.  They are a major provider of professional and vocational education, research and consultancy in the fields of health and social care.  The Institute collaborates closely with care services in Dorset and throughout the South West.

Their aim is to prepare students for the challenging task of improving the health and well being of the communities in which they live and work.

Academic Services supports the whole University in learning and teaching, research and administration.  The department operates as a converged service, which integrates library, learner support and media service functions.  The department has two very clear purposes: to provide an essential set of services to support students and staff in their learning, research and general work, and to work with colleagues throughout the University to promote the general mission and strategic plan. 

The Library Service involvement in the production of British Nursing Index exemplifies these two purposes.
