Inside this issue:
We are proud to show-case our newly rede-signed Health Sciences Library intranet site,
which was launched in January, 2015. The new look features easier ac-cess to our databases,
electronic resources, books, journals and online catalog. In addi-tion, the site will keep you posted on new li-brary resources and an-nouncements of interest to both GHS and USCSOM Greenville.
We love the clean look and easy navigability – and we hope you will too!

The Library has recently arranged for trial subscriptions to two new electronic resources—Access Sur-gery and Access Emergency Medi-cine. We already have subscrip-tions to two of their sister prod-ucts, Access Medicine and Access Pharmacy. Anyone who has used either of those resources will be familiar with the Access platform.
Access Emergency Medicine and Access Surgery include access to
Leading textbooks
Procedural videos
High-quality images
Interactive self-assessments
Clerkship corner
Custom curriculum
Drug Database
Both trials run through May 10, 2015. Please try them out and provide feedback to Fay Towell at [email protected]. Or simply email [email protected] with your comments. We value and appreciate your opinion!
While everyone loves the easy access and availabil-ity of electronic books, there are many times when a print edition is the quickest and easiest
way to get to the infor-mation we need.
The library has recently added a number of new print books, including new editions of key titles
as well as completely new titles to complement our collection.
The new books encom-pass all of the allied health sciences, including quite a few areas that are especially relevant to the medical students. Sub-jects include anatomy, histology, pharmacology, microbiology and neurol-ogy—as well as all of the clinical specialties. We have also added a num-ber of new books for nursing and pharmacy.
Stop in and browse the “New Books” shelf. And if you are unable to stop by, check the list of new books on our Facebook page! Books circulate for two weeks.
