There is a wealth of material on this subject. To get started I suggest you visit our Biology LibGuide here (http://libguides.brenau.edu/content.php?pid=204076&sid=1704018). Next click on the "General Biology" tab. You'll see a list of primary databases under the "Biology Articles" heading. I chose to work with the first database, Academic Search Complete. After you log-in (instructions on the page) you can search with the phrase Birth Defects AND alcohol. I brought up 146 articles on the topic searching with that phrase. On the left hand side of the screen you'll see where you can adjust your search by date if you'd like to get more recent research. That should give you plenty of articles to chose from.

For books, go back to the Biology LibGuide, click on the General Biology tab and scroll down to the Trustee Library Catalog. Once again I searched with the phrase Birth Defects and Alcohol. Once the results are brought up I clicked on the Books box on the left hand side of the screen. That gave me roughly 250 plus ebooks and print books.

My suggestion for a website would be to visit the Centers for Disease Control at www.cdc.gov. Once again I used the phrase Birth Defects and Alcohol and found over 1,000 hits on my subject.
