Databases
Medical and healthcare
databases search journal articles or the content of online books.
Some, but not all, of the articles you locate will be available
in full-text form. Library professionals are glad to schedule
time with a MCHS employee or group to answer questions about how
to search for information on your topic of interest. Please do
not hesitate to ask us for assistance.
