Database News

MDConsult has been phased out and replaced with a new product by the publisher Elsevier. The cost for the new product ClinicalKey is substantially more than our current subscription price for MDConsult. Given the Libraries’ ongoing budget constraints we will not be subscribing to this product and have opted instead to replace the more heavily used journal content. We are currently working with faculty on identifying the monographic content available that needs to be replaced.
Please be assured that all the library liaisons and staff are available to work with you to ensure that we meet your information needs.
