Librarians are online 24/7, but may not be able to help with your Birthingway Library issue. Get help with research, finding a book or article or verifying a citation. Tell the Librarian you use AMA format.

Can't find the item or article you need in the Birthingway Library? Try requesting it through Multnomah County Interlibrary Loan (ILL). All you need is a Multnomah County Library card with a barcode. You'll create your own account and password so you don't even need a MultCoLib pin number. Their tutorial and FAQ pages are very helpful!

It offers full-text articles for more than 180 international, and often peer-reviewed journals and reports. There are hundreds of pamphlets, booklets, special reports, original research and book excerpts. Login to the Alt HealthWatch™ database using your Birthingway library card barcode and pin number provided by the librarian.
