Elsevier upgraded ClinicalKey to add the Study Resources module. The ClinicalKey Study Resources module contains some new books as well as Disease Summaries and Videos. Students can read Study Resources eBooks online without a free Elsevier login. If students create a free Elsevier login, they can load books to their Bookshelf. Books loaded to a personal bookshelf can be read offline with the Bookshelf mobile app. The original ClinicalKey is now called the Clinical References module.

Web of Science

There is a new database available in Web of Science: Research Commons includes data from open sources that can improve the discovery of items not otherwise indexed on the Web of Science platform. The collection is:

  • Multidisciplinary, adding records from the social sciences, arts, and humanities, in addition to the sciences
  • Connected to the Web of Science citation network
  • Searchable directly or via the All Databases search option
