Four new McGraw-Hill Access resources now online

VCU Libraries recently added four new health sciences resources from publisher McGraw-Hill. The additions are:

Each of these online tools offers a compendium of leading texts, image banks and videos, an integrated drug database, self-assessment questions and many other resources. Faculty can create learning modules and track student progress with the optional "Custom Curriculum" feature. Mobile versions are available to users who set up a personal profile.

The sources can be easily located through the Databases A-Z list and links to individual e-book titles appear in the catalog.

Because only a limited number of  users can view the content at one time, some users may have to wait a few minutes for access.

Training sessions for all Access products will be offered in January at Tompkins-McCaw Library for the Health Sciences.
