Mosby’s Nursing Consult is getting a face-lift AND a new name, ClinicalKey for Nursing! Elsevier is upgrading its popular online nursing resource effective January 1, 2016. Our staff is currently working with Elsevier on this transition, and we hope to have it all running smoothly for the start of the Spring semester. We are almost up-and-running, but there are still some issues, primarily with the off-campus access. We will share the news on the blog when everything is fixed.
The new platform includes most of the same content with some exceptions, particularly where outdated information is concerned. You will find the same, great books and journals, including books such as “Goldman-Cecil Medicine,” “Harriet Lane Handbook,” and “Sheehy’s Emergency Nursing,” and journals like “Nurse Leader,” “Journal for Nurse Practitioners,” and “Nursing Clinics of North America.” The journal coverage goes back to 2007 where available, and we do have some of the older coverage on the ScienceDirect platform. As with Mosby’s Nursing Consult, the books are updated with newer editions as the they are released. Be sure to check our INNOPAC library catalog for the most accurate record of what we have.
ClinicalKey for Nursing is also a Point-of-Care tool that is designed to help nurses find information quickly. It includes over 1,500 drug monographs, 300 procedural videos, and 175 disease topic pages.
Please contact a reference librarian if you need assistance with ClinicalKey for Nursing.
EBSCO is one of the Library’s many eBook providers, and over the past two years, we have been able to substantially increase our eBook offerings through the EBSCOhost platform. We currently have over 100 titles in a variety of disciplines that support each of our 6 schools.
All of the EBSCO eBooks are accessible through our library catalog and E-Journals & E-Books A to Z List, but now we have added another access point through our list of databases under ebooks (EBSCOhost). This option will allow the user to browse and search all of the EBSCO eBooks in one place. To see a complete listing of our EBSCO eBooks, be sure to click on the “eBooks” link on the top banner of the database and then select “View All” on the “Highlights” bar.
Don’t forget to check out all of our eBook collections. We have created a handy-dandy ebooks LibGuides to help you navigate all the different options.


The Library is pleased to announce that we have purchased the latest edition of Devita, Hellman, and Rosenberg’s Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology (10th ed., 2015) online through our Books@Ovid platform. Vincent Devita and his colleagues have been publishing this classic text since 1982! The 10th edition of this definitive oncology resource includes several new chapters, and this online book will be updated quarterly with new content.
This title can be found via our library catalog: http://innopac.lsuhsc.edu/, and it can be accessed directly from the Books@Ovid platform. For off campus access, be sure to log in through our Web Access Management system (WAM) using your library barcode number and PIN.
R2 is back in action! Please let us know if you continue to have problems accessing these ebooks.
We apologize for any inconvenience this outage caused!
We are currently experiencing some technical difficulties with the R2 Digital Library. The problem has been reported, and we will update the blog as soon as we find out more information.

The Library is pleased to announce that we now have an online subscription to the most recent edition of the Scientific style and format: the CSE manual for authors, editors, and publishers. Currently in its 8th edition, the CSE style manual has been a standard reference for scientific publishing since 1960. As it is the required format for Graduate Studies theses and dissertations, we are most excited to be able to offer our users this access both on and off campus. For off campus access, be sure to log in through our Web Access Management system (WAM) using your library barcode number and PIN.
We hope this helps ease and simplify your writing process!

This is just a gentle reminder that our MDConsult access will expire on Sunday, 5/11/2014.
See our previous blog post here for more information: https://www.lsuhsc.edu/library/news/?p=9481.
Adios! Au revoir! Ciao! MD Consult will be going away. Our access is set to expire May 11, 2014. While Elsevier has developed a new product, Clinical Key, that replaces and expands MD Consult, the cost is currently far beyond our budget. Please know that we are making every effort to purchase essential MD Consult books and journals from other sources as they are available and affordable.
We recently purchased 10 of the most heavily used books on another online platform, R2 Digital Library. Many of the books can be found in the Library’s print collection. A library guide has been created to help users find alternative content. We have also subscribed to select journals via Science Direct. We will continue to make replacing this content a priority, however funding is limited.
The School of Medicine first acquired MD Consult in 1999. It was one of the earliest online resources for medical books and journals. Funding for this resource has always been a joint effort with costs being shared among some of the schools and, at one time, the regional Area Health Education Centers. For the last 10 years, funding has been provided by the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, Allied Health, and the Library.
Thanks to everyone for your support of MD Consult over the past 15 years!
McGraw-Hill recently?áunvelied their new online platform which is designed to integrate all of their Access products. The look is very different but the content is all there, so don’t panic when you see it. If you have trouble getting to anything, just let us know. We will post more information about the new platform soon.
Thanks for your patience!
