Literature searches

Regional West's librarian can perform literature searches from databases Medline and eMedicine. The literature search will provide citations, abstracts, and full-text articles, if available.

Interlibrary loans

Library customers needing access to a specific journal article or book not available in the library can ask to have it ordered through interlibrary loans, often at no charge.

The library is a member of ICON Health Information Consortium and FreeShare—a free DOCLINE library group whose members agree to deliver requests free of charge to other group members.

A computer with Internet access is available to the library's customers, free of charge, during regular business hours.
