Open Access Electronic Resources

Just in time for a rainy day!

The Merck Manuals (Diagnosis and Therapy, Home Edition and Veterinary) are now available free online - downloads and physical copies are available for purchase, but Merck states that "as part of its commitment to ensuring that all who need and want medical information can get it, Merck provides the content of these Merck Manuals on the web for free. Registration is not required, and use is unlimited. The web publications are continually updated to ensure that the information is as up-to-date as possible" (via their commitment statement).

We've also added several open access ejournals to our ejournals list:
British Columbia Medical Journal
Canadian Family Physician
Canadian Journal of Public Health
Disability Studies Quarterly
Health and Human Rights
International Journal of Biological Chemistry
Issues in Science and Technology
Journal of the National Medical Association
Neoplasia: an International Journal for Oncology Research
Research Journal of Environmental Toxicology
Research Journal of Microbiology
Sleep
Yale Journal of Biology & Medicine

And some library-oriented ones for ourselves!:
Information Management
International Journal of Library and Information Science
Library Leadership and Management
