Research resources

 

Business and IP Centre Resources

The Business and IP Centre at The Hive provides free access to a selection of business databases and up to date business information. The following business databases are available to access for free from any public computer in The Hive.

  • COBRA (Complete Business Reference Adviser)
  • Statista
  • FAME 

For more information on each of these databases and to access them, please visit the BIPC Worcestershire business database or ask a member of the library staff.

Other Research Databases

The Hive provides access to many research databases on a walk-in basis. This means that they are available to all library members within the building itself, but not at home or in other County libraries.
