Health information

I attended an on-line workshop yesterday about Consumer Health Complete by Ebsco. It’s not just for “consumers”. They have compiled an extensive list of publications (professional journals, etc) to be used while searching for information.

I’ve created instructions on how to sift through Academic Search Premier and ProQuest to create a journal alert. But one has to “ know” the periodical is medically related.

Consumer Health Complete has “sifted” for you!

GALILEO
…Select the tab Databases A-Z (far right across the top)
…..Jump to C
…….Consumer Health Complete
………..Select Advanced Search (only a text link)
…………....Select Publications (a link on the far right under North Metro Technical College)
……..Listed are a wide variety of publications- some are “embargoed” for a year- the publishers do want us to buy the print version.

A question was asked about how different this interface looks from the "standard" Ebsco product. Yes, it does look different - and I like it!
