New Thieme Ebook Library Interface

Thieme has just updated its interface - the same e-book content but much faster loading and an easier search interface for quicker access to review books on the topics covered in medical school curriculums.

LRC updates its Clinical Search page!

This search page enables you to simultaneously search ACP Pier (ACP's clinical point of care tool), and MDConsult's First Consult clinical point of care tool. Thus this search tool enables you to find quick, accurate answers to specific clinical questions.

A link to Clinical Search is located in the Quick Links menu on the left.

Try it out and let the LRC staff know how useful this new tool is. As always if you have any questions or need any assistance please contact the LRC staff.
