Once a relevant article is found, the searcher can use this feature to easily find similar documents. The Library staff joins me in inviting all new students, faculty, researchers and staff to join the HAM-TMC Library. Students, residents, fellows, faculty and researchers are eligible for FREE computer access to the web and Library resources. Everyone will be given FREE guided tours, orientations and a Library guide explaining how and where to best meet your information needs.
Standard services are FREE, value-added services have nominal fees.
The Library provides members with a full array of databases. Whether your information needs are for the latest in the medical or nursing literature, consumer health information, the business aspects of health care, government publications or general information, the Library has a database that will help. Periodicals Union Lists of Periodicals Plans are to add a drug information system, PDQ, Genbank and more full-text systems. Watch this newsletter for those future additions.
