RN ceases

The magazine RN has ceased with its September issue, v.72 (9), 2009, and merged into a publication called Healthcare Traveler, v.17 (4), 2009. We will not pay to renew Healthcare Traveler.

Developmental Medicine and Child Neurology

Developmental Medicine and Child Neurology -- have the 2 publishers involved changed what they are providing EBSCO?

That title switched publishers around 2006-2007, from Cambridge to Wiley. Previously I was still able to use the Cambridge link under "E-Journals from EBSCO" to access the earlier content and then use the Wiley link for the more current content. However, now the full text links from the EBSCO page under Cambridge only go to abstracts, not full articles. Actually I did reach a 2006 full text via that link, but the May 2004 and one I checked for 2002 only gave me abstracts.

When I try the Wiley link and go to the publisher site I randomly checked a few years and it seems I can get to full text all the way back into 1958.

Archives of Physical Medicine & Rehab, Journal of Hand Surgery Am, Applied Nursing Res, J Ped Nursing

We now have online access back to around 1995 for these 4 titles from Elsevier:
Applied Nursing Research
Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
Journal of Hand Surgery American
Journal of Pediatric Nursing

In fact, as of 2010 we will no longer receive print copies of these 4 titles.

Acta Orthopaedica

We have online access to this title back through v.1, 1930. The EBSCO Open Access links take you there, or if you click on the publisher further into A to Z you can reach it. I am in the process of having the E-Journals from EBSCO corrected.

Occasional issues are only available in HTML. Not sure if that is a currency issue. Perhaps it will later switch to PDF.

APA new 6th edition -- helpful resources

The Alvin Sherman Library has been working on an APA (6th ed.) page with a number of How Do I Cite? videos: -- http://www.nova.edu/library/dils/lessons/apa/index.htm
(This is the main page with all the links.)

I should mention that this is still a work in progress, but we wanted to post it in time for the new
semester. These APA modules are generic rather than program specific so they
may also be useful in your institutions.

We have some general overview videos. They can also be helpful for students
who have trouble with just the basics and have trouble remembering to just
put a period after the parentheses enclosing the date of publication and
need visuals.

. Citing Sources (20-page handout) --
http://www.nova.edu/library/dils/teachinghandouts/apa/APA_6th_ed.pdf
. Assignments (5 min. 45 sec.) -- Title page, formatting of paper,
headings, reference page
http://www.nova.edu/library/dils/video/format_assignAPA6th/
. Text Citations (11 min.) -- Discussion of text citations, quotations,
paraphrasing, and plagiarism
http://www.nova.edu/library/dils/video/TextCitations6thed
. Article Citations (4 min. 15 sec.)
http://www.nova.edu/library/dils/video/FormatJournalArticle_APA6th/
. Book Citations (4 min.)
http://www.nova.edu/library/dils/video/FormatBookReferenceCitations_APA6thed

Especially for doctoral students who have more specialized needs, we also
have specialized videos for questions about how to handle various scenarios.
The reference components may be helpful because each module looks in depth
at one specific element of the citation (authors/editors, date of
publication, titles, publication information, and electronic sources). For
example, the module on authors/editors look at formatting author information
in the text and reference citations for one author, two authors, six
authors, eight authors (with ellipses), no author, corporate authors,
anonymous, editors, compound initials, and suffixes like Jr. and III. (See

You are all welcome to share these resources with anyone you like. If you
have any suggestions or comments, let me know. Thanks,

HCPro has changed its website. It still works fine, just lots more white space to scroll through.

When you follow a newsletter link from our web-based journal list you will need to scroll down to the very bottom of the HCPro page to reach the newsletter. There it will ask for our username and password. After entering that you will need to scroll to the very bottom again to finally reach the newsletter itself. Please let me know if you encounter any problems.

Pre-CINAHL database merges into CINAHL

EBSCO has announced that as of March 31, 2009, the content we currently access in Pre-CINAHL will be merged into CINAHL to streamline the search process. The MEDLINE database is already handled that way.

If you wish to exclude these records in your CINAHL product search, you can use the "Exclude Pre-CINAHL" search limiter.

The new CINAHL Support Center (http://support.ebscohost.com/cinahl) is available whenever you need support in learning how to use CINAHL products

The Amaryllis Bulb

Today, Dec. 12, 2008, I planted an amaryllis bulb and placed it on my sunny desk for library users to enjoy. I expect it to grow tall quickly and create a pretty red bloom.

Online journal access problems system-wide -- resolved

1-19-09: this problem has been resolved and the online journals are now working properly. Please report any problems you encounter.

1-8-09: With the start of the new year we have encountered problems in our online access systems. I am in the process of trying to resolve those. Meanwhile if you need online access to a particular title, please bring it to my attention.

Developmental Disabilities Research Reviews is new title for Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities Research Reviews

This title has recently changed its name. Our access via the publisher if you are on campus is 1996 - the current issue.

Reading tables of contents

If you would like to receive table of content alerts for some journal titles directly to your email you can set an email alert via the publisher. However, a method that I would suggest is the RSS feed option you will often see in the same place. If you use a "feed reader" such as the free Google Reader ( www.google.com/reader ) you can just go to a single website when you want to catch up on your reading. When you log in you will see neatly gathered the links to the titles, websites, etc. that you have set up with an indication of the new content that has been posted to that site. You can even group them by topic. To reach our full text online content from those links you would need to be accessing it from a hospital computer though.

Wiley InterScience

Wiley InterScience reports that over the weekend 1.6 million articles from Blackwell journals were successfully loaded onto Wiley InterScience over the weekend and the site went live again this Monday morning.
To view the full list of Wiley-Blackwell journals go to www.interscience.wiley.com

Wiley Interscience and Blackwell Synergy almost merged

Over the weekend of June 28 and 29, 2008, there will be a period when both Blackwell Synergy and Wiley InterScience will be unavailable. After July 1, 2008, Blackwell Synergy will no longer be available online.

Journal of Children's Orthopaedics

5-21-08: however, we only get online access to the current year! I am investigating to see what the cost is for archival access. This does not seem to match their goals of "affordable and readable" access to global medicine.

10-11-07: We now have access to a new title, Journal of Children's Orthopaedics, which began in 2007.

Journal of Hand Surgery -- now "European," not "British"

As of their 2007 issues the British and European edition of the Journal of Hand Surgery is no longer the "British" edition. It will be called the "European" edition and therefore instead of being v.32B it is v.32E.

Elsevier online titles

We have online access to Applied Nursing Research and Journal of Pediatric Nursing through Elsevier, which took over these titles as of 2008. However, A to Z does not show online access to either so I need to determine if it can be added.

Joint Commission titles

5-19-08: See the July 9, 2007 post for links to our titles. However, today we no longer have access as far back on The Source, Environment of Care News and Benchmark. I have written Joint Commission, IngentaConnect and EBSCO to try to straighten this out. These titles will not be available on our A to Z listing because they are single user titles.

Benchmark's page says archives are available via IngentaConnect, but currently they just do not work.

HCPro titles

The HCPro titles are not all showing up correctly on our new A to Z online journal list. I am in the process of getting the links corrected. You can still access them through the link in the post from March, 2007 and from the table on the "web-based journal" link if you scroll down that page. Contact me for the password.

Also, they have a publication called Briefings on Hospital Safety that they seem to also refer to as Hospital Safety Center. The publication itself is the Briefings title though.

Wiley-Blackwell

Blackwell journals are moving to Wiley Interscience. Here's the librarian newsletter link.

CORR

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research online content starting in 2008 is now available via SpringerLink. If you cannot find the most current issue on the first page you come to, try clicking the publisher link. Sometimes there is a delay in providing the newest content to the in-between providers.

Here is the link to that title -- from here just click on "See Publisher's Site":

http://atoz.ebsco.com/JournalHome.asp?id=9161&sid=207507391&plid=1131601&lang=en

1:30pm: You can also now reach it on campus from here:

OVID statistical reports

re getting stats from OVID now that they are on SP (as reported by comments on listserv CDPLUS-L):

OVID reports that their intent is to maintain the Gateway-module until the SP-module has
the same capabilities for statistical reports. Until then, the Gateway-module is the one to use.

The new version has a longer timeout so possibly fewer users can get in

At present, the Gateway-module is reporting the reliable data. The SP module, by contrast, is reporting only partially the same activity.

Feb 2008 was a short month not only due to the number of days but also because the Gateway to SP change occurred.

Reports can be accessed directly from within the statistics program (rather than from email). They appear under "completed reports" up in the left hand corner under "welcome." Make sure that you have "all content" checked in the pull down menu under "report scope."

The SP module e-mails you a link to their server when a given report is ready. This link is to a zipped (.zip) format file, which you, in turn, unzip to view two "comma-delimited" text files.

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research

This title is available online via OVID for most of 1976 through 2007, all in pdf format now. Number 115, 1976, is in pdf while number 114, 1976, is not yet available to us in that format.

This title is known by several names and abbreviations: Clinical Orthopaedics, Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, Clin Orthop, CORR, Clin Orthop Relat Res. They are all the same. In 2008 it moved to a new publisher, Springer, so the 2008 issues are not available through OVID.

Blackwell titles moving to Wiley InterScience

As of July 1, 2008, all Blackwell journal content and all Wiley online content will be hosted on Wiley InterScience. Blackwell book content is already available on this site. All Blackwell journal access rights should be transferred to enable continuous access to licensed content for all customers on Wiley InterScience. The combined service will accommodate both the existing Wiley and Blackwell licensing models. Blackwell Synergy will cease to be available as of July 1, 2008. Existing Synergy URLs and links will redirect to the content on Wiley InterScience.

Information page on Wiley InterScience ( http://click.ebsco-email.com/?ju=fe291577746d047d711379&ls=fdf111737166017b701d7476&m=fefa167270600c&l=fec4117777640d79&s=fdfe15727562047f7c127577&jb=ffcf14&t=)

Journal of Learning Disabilities

Effective January 1, 2008, Sage Publications will act as the Hammill Institute on Disabilities' representative regarding subscriptions to Journal of Learning Disabilities, formerly from Pro-Ed. Current online access is through 2002, but renewal information indicates it may expand back through 1999. However, we also have online access via one of the EBSCO full text databases back through v.8, 1975. Check the list of web-based journals under the A to Z trial.

AMA Journals - JAMA, Arch Neurology, Arch Ped & Adol Med

10-24-07:
but I changed it and still have problems.
If you have problems accessing, try using the passwords (found via library website) at the site directly:
http://jama.ama-assn.org/
http://archneur.ama-assn.org/

9-6-07
More problems accessing. EBSCO reports:
Due to the way JAMA's site is setup, when you display your End User Access Notes in a frame at the top of the publisher's site, you must have your browser set to always accept Session Cookies. The steps to do this will vary based on your internet browser type and version, and depending on your institution's network settings, you may need to contact your IT department to have this done.An alternative to the above is to have the End User Access Note display as a pop-up rather than in a frame. This can be done by selecting the option 'Open end user access note in a popup window' towards the bottom of the Notes section in Registration Tracker.

12-13-06
problems reported again from one user's desk although passwords work when I check in the library. I will activate more passwords in case they are really all being used at one time.

12-7-05
These should be working now. Password IS required, and we have 3 password accounts activated. You will see the correct ones when you reach the title (it will take me a while to get the main page updated). If it doesn't work, maybe someone is using that password so try another. The second half of the password is the same for all.

Please let me know if you still have any problems. mp

12-5-05
Some staff report they are unable to access online text at their desk for these titles from AMA. However, they are accessible in the Medical Library. I am working on discovering the problem. If you are able to reach one of these at your desk I would be interested in knowing that.

A to Z List of Online Journal Access

We are testing a new service from EBSCO that lists all our online journal access in one "A to Z" list. I am still in the process of setting it up, so it is not yet complete. For remote access contact the librarian for passwords. Although this will enable you to see the list, most titles can really only be reached from on campus.

publications from the Association of Children's Prosthetic & Orthotic Clinics

re:
ICIB Inter-Clinic Information Bulletin
JACPOC Journal of the Association of Children's Prosthetic & Orthotic Clinics
ACPOC News

All issues of all of these publications are available free online at: http://www.acpoc.org/library

Their website states
"Beginning in 1961, ACPOC published a journal called the Inter-Clinic Information Bulletin (ICIB). In 1985, the name was changed to the Journal of the Association of Children's Prosthetic & Orthotic Clinics (JACPOC). Publication of this journal ended in 1994, and was replaced with ACPOC News.

All clinical articles from these newsletters and journals dating back to 1976 have been digitized and are available here. The years prior to 1976 will be posted as they are completed."

Joint Commission journals

7-9-07: today our online access to The Source seems to have dropped out except for June 2007-
I have written them to check on it.

1-8-07: online access is now provided by another provider. I am working to get them all reactivated and then updated on the website. We have subscriptions to Environment of Care News, Joint Commission Benchmark, Perspectives, Perspectives on Patient Safety and The Source. To reach Benchmark back through 2000; to reach Environment of Care News back through 2000; to reach Perspectives back through 2000; to reach The Source back through 2003; to reach Perspectives on Patient Safety, back through 2005 hopefully today.

3-27-07 - access from www.hcpro.com
Site is still very confusing, but we have added two more HCPro titles:
Briefings on Hospital Safety (which includes Healthcare Security Alert)

1-10-07: the entire text of the journal CANCER is available in full text online back through v.1, 1948. Compliments of Wiley InterScience and the American Cancer Society. See the list of volumes including a search box on the page.

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research

http://www.josr-online.com/ v.1, 2006-

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research is an open access, peer-reviewed online journal that will encompass all aspects of clinical and basic research studies related to musculoskeletal issues. All articles will be listed in PubMed immediately upon acceptance (after peer review), and will be covered by PubMed Central. Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research is the official journal of the Chinese Speaking Orthopaedic Society. There is no BioMed Central fee to publish in this journal as the journal covers the cost.

Scoliosis

3-1-07: a new, online-only, peer-reviewed journal dated from March, 2006-
http://www.scoliosisjournal.com/home/
"Scoliosis is ready to receive papers on all aspects of the prevention, control, and conservative treatment of scoliosis and other spinal deformities."
"Scoliosis is published by BioMed Central, an independent publisher committed to ensuring peer-reviewed biomedical research is Open Access. It is freely and universally accessible online, it is archived in at least one internationally recognised free access repository, and its authors retain copyright, allowing anyone to reproduce or disseminate articles." "Scoliosis aims to provide an integrated and balanced view of diagnostic, research, and treatment procedures to enhance effective collaboration among specialists in this rapidly growing field world-wide."
Here is an editorial from the first issue, discussing its history, written by editor Hans-Rudolf Weiss

2-26-07: Agent says must authenticate via publisher. Wrote publisher.
2-21-07: link not working to access our online copy. New online content provider. Contacted agent.

Journal of Child Neurology

3-1-07: content from 12-06 now available from the new publisher (Sage) via EBSCO at http://ejournals.ebsco.com/Journal2.asp?JournalID=712318
Possibly they will be adding the older content, too, that is not clear.

2-14-07: we still have online available via EBSCO at
http://ejournals.ebsco.com/Journal2.asp?JournalID=110822
Covers 2001-2006. It is not in pdf format. Still working on the 2007, but 2007 content may simply not yet be available.

2-12-07: discovered that Journal of Child Neurology has moved from B.C. Decker to Sage and our online access has disappeared from Decker. I'm sure it is temporary. Wrote Sage today.

American Journal of Orthopedics now online

1-19-07:
The American Journal of Orthopedics now offers some content online to all subscribers at

www.amjorthopedics.com

but it does require registration. I am currently working through activation problems.

BMJ archives

If you want to see an older article in the BMJ archives you need to use the "Print Issues" tab on their site.

http://www.bmj.com/archive/

They have plans to extend the archive back to the first issue, 1840, but currently it is available only back to 1994, and some of the older content is only in html.

JBJS American version

JBJS has just announced a service for your patients. They can get an article from JBJS American for free by going to www.JBJS.org and choosing the "patient access" option once they have located the particular PDF they desire. The article will be emailed to them.

Journal of Hand Surgery

12-14-06 This title is a problem for those of you who use our custom PubMed link and click on the "online" icon. We do in fact have online access to the title, and that link tells you so. However, this is one where you will actually need to get to the online access via the library's web-based journal page. The reason is you need a password and that is only way I have to let you know the password.

OVID journals

9-07: we do have access for 3 users now.

11-22-06
question:
whenever I click on the link to "online" from PubMed, if the article is through OVID (like JPO) I get a reply that says "the fulltext article could not be found."I can access it by going to the online JPO through the library homepage, but it takes much longer to find the article.

reply:
I will work on that to see if it can be changed. Thanks for letting me know. I'm glad you know how to get to it from the web-based journals list though. We only have 1 user at a time, so be sure to log off in between.

11-06-06 We have access to various years of several titles via OVID. You can see the complete list if you are within the institution by going here:
http://gateway.ovid.com/ovidweb.cgi?T=JS&MODE=ovid&NEWS=N&D=yrovft&PAGE=browse&BROWSEOPT=browseJournals

We have one user at a time access, so please be sure to log out when you are done so the seat is released for another to use.

Here is the direct link to our newest title, Infants and Young Children:

Archives of Disease in Childhood

Nov. 20 -- I had different links earlier in Nov., but apparently they are not stable. This single link seems to work best. I will update the website soon.

Archives of Disease in Childhood now offers quite a bit of full text online. See all 3 versions plus the supplements via the links from their main page at http://adc.bmj.com/

The main journal, Archives of Diseases of Children, is available back to 1997

ADC Fetal and Neonatal Edition is also available to us online back to 1997

Various supplements go back to 2000

and the ADC Education and Practice version is accessible back to June, 2004.

Contemporary Pediatrics

Contemporary Pediatrics is free online from Jan., 1999. It offers useful tips to practitioners.

Evidence-Based Child Health: A Cochrane Review Journal

We now have at least temporary access to Evidence-Based Child Health: A Cochrane Review Journal and it should be active within the institution. It is very new, so has few issues, but the most recent issue includes articles on injection site pain, Vitamin A for measles, chronic cough and booster seat use.

Skeletal Radiology (and Pediatric Radiology, too)

11-6-06 We still have access to v.26, 1997 forward (and v.27, 1997 for Pediatric Radiology). However, no longer do we have the very early volumes.

4-6-05: We now have online access to Skeletal Radiology v.1, 1976 - v.3, 1978 and then also v.26, 1997 - . I am checking on what is needed to get the other years and why we no longer have access to 1996 online. mp

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics

4-3-06: It was brought to my attention that some articles in 2001 are not available in pdf. I have written our vendor to ask that they upgrade those articles.

Revista de Neurologia

Revista de Neurologia - free online now available back to 1998. You can register yourself, or contact me. It is indexed in PubMed.

Journal of Orthopaedic Research

Feb. 24 -- Journal of Orthopaedic Research, now moved to Wiley, and we get all the way back to: 2001-
http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/cgi-bin/jtoc/111089308/

EBSCO link is http://ejournals.ebsco.com/Journal2.asp?JournalID=114082

old number http://ejournals.ebsco.com/Journal.asp?JournalID=108740
but that one only refers to web editions, so no need to use now.

Full text links on PubMed

If you like to search MEDLINE on PubMed, use this link so that you will be able to see what we have in the hospital
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?holding=txudtslib

You can search that same link from home or anywhere in the world.

Here is a sample citation to show you what to expect. Go to the link above and type in
15599283
Then click to see the abstract version and you will see links for the TSRHC library journals, both shelved and online versions. Sometimes you can actually click through to the full text available at TSRHC. Other times you will need to return to the library's web-based journals page.

A similar link is available that shows TSRHC and UTSW titles. You will NOT be able to access UTSW journals, this is just so you can find out what they have. See the link at the TSRHC Medical Library website under databases - medical or contact the librarian.

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics

Feb. 8, 2006 - the link has apparently changed. Try this one until I get the website revised:


http://gateway.ovid.com/ovidweb.cgi?T=JS&NEWS=N&PAGE=toc&SEARCH=01241398-000000000-00000.kc&LINKTYPE=asBody&LINKPOS=1&D=ovft

Only from on campus and please be sure to log out since we are limited to a single user at a time.

Full text databases (such as Psychology)

11-9-05 The EBSCOhost full text databases are currently showing search results that are not available to you online. I have contacted the agent and am working to resolve this problem. Sorry for any inconvenience.

AJR American Journal of Roentgenology

PDF is now available back to 1990- instead of 2000.

HSS Journal

New from the Hospital for Special Care, the HSS Journal, volume 1, number 1, Sept. 2005, is currently available free in full text online. While it does not specialize in pediatric care, it does deal with orthopedic conditions that may be relevant to our needs.

http://www.springerlink.de/link.asp?id=119762

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics Part B now online!

We have now added JPO Part B to our list of online journal content. It is available back to 2001. If articles do not show up automatically when you do a search, go to the library's web-based journals page
http://tsrhkids/mlibrary/web-based.htm
to access it and let me know so I can work on it.

Please be sure to logoff when you have finished printing your article as we have a very limited amount of access and if you forget to logoff you may inconvenience another user.

Sage Journals free through Oct. 31.

Until October 31, journals from Sage Publications are free online to institutions that subscribe to even one title in celebration of their 40th anniversary and their 1st anniversary of being online.
http://online.sagepub.com/

At their website you can search by topic or title. Topics include pediatrics, nursing, neuroscience, education, psychology, sociology, research methods, rehabilitation medicine, surgery, radiology and computer science among others. You can even see a list of the "most read" articles in particular journals. A good time to sample some titles.

We are able to access these titles due to our subscriptions to Journal of Transcultural Nursing and also Neurorehabilitation and Neural Repair.

Pediatric Pain Letter

9-22-05 Website has been updated. You can now access this through the library's web-based journals page.

Pediatric Pain Letter is now online only. I will soon add it to the library website but for now here is a link:
http://pediatric-pain.ca/ppl/index.html
Their new website includes links to additional pediatric pain resources
including the FACES pain scale with instructions in over 20 languages.

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics

9-12-05: It has come to my attention that a search done in EBSCO MEDLINE will show a full text link to JPO for a 2002 article but not for a 2004 article. However, when you click along to OVID to reach the full text it asks for a password. That is not right, so I am checking with EBSCO. Please print JPO articles (and SPINE and CORR) through the Web-based Journals list at the Medical Library website. Be sure you log out when you have printed your article. Sorry for the inconvenience.

RSNA News

Radiological Society of North America News

9-22-05 Website has been updated. You can now access this through the library's web-based journals page.

8-29-05: RSNA News links through EJS not working. Reported to EJS.
8-31-05: EJS checking with publisher for new link.
9-8-05: Links now working. Here's the link until I get the web-based journal page updated: http://ejournals.ebsco.com/direct.asp?JournalID=108040

Mental Retardation & Developmental Disabilities Research Reviews

11-14-05 However, the earlier content is not, but is available if you go directly to the publisher. No password seems to be needed.

9-19-05: EJS reports content is now available on their site.
9-6-05: EJS replied they are researching to see if 1996 content can be added to EJS.
9-6-05: noticed Mental Retardation & Developmental Disabilities Research Reviews is now available in full text back to 1996 on their own website. Notified EBSCO to investigate adding the additional content directly to EJS at
http://ejournals.ebsco.com/Journal2.asp?JournalID=102317

However, you can reach it by going to the publisher website from that page.

Joint Commission Benchmark, J Infant Child & Adolescent Psychotherapy

9-22-05 Website has been updated. You can now access JOINT COMMISSION BENCHMARK through the library's web-based journals page. I will add the other later as there are still some questions.

8-24 -- EBSCO reports JOINT COMMISSION BENCHMARK and JOURNAL OF INFANT CHILD AND ADOLESCENT PSYCHOTHERAPY have been added to our Ingenta access. So they should not need a password now.

9-22-05 Benchmark is at http://ejournals.ebsco.com/Journal2.asp?JournalID=112774 2003-

Joint Commission Perspectives

9-22-05 Website has been updated. You can now access this through the library's web-based journals page.

8/18/05 -- 11:30 -- current link no longer gives us immediate access. Started process of updating institutional registration.
1:30 -- Had to write both Joint Commission and IngentaConnect because 2000-2002 is at the JC headquarters, while the 2003- issues are through IngentaConnect.

8-31-05 Joint Commission Perspectives -- but passwords not yet permitting free access
http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/jcaho/jcp

9-22-05 access now available at above link from 2003- but not on the EJS site. Wrote agent to work on that problem. Not currently able to add a user note to the Quick List though.

Child Development

8-17-05: While our actual subscription only includes about a year's worth of online access, I've just discovered that our database subscription provides free pdf full text all the way back to v.1, 1930 and no waiting a year to see current issues either! Scroll down to the bottom A-C listing for now, but I will update the webpage soon. mp

The Lancet

Although we do not receive a print subscription to The Lancet, we actually do have online access!
We get it as part of a full text database. If you go to the Web-based Journals page of the Medical Library website and scroll down in the list of titles, you will see the link.
http://tsrhkids/mlibrary/web-based.htm

1991-1998 is just in html format, but after that it is the nice pdf version that prints so well.

If you would like to set up an email journal alert to hear about new issues you can use the My EBSCOhost feature. Click on "Journal Alert" and you will be led to set up the account. They will not send you any bothersome email, but there you can manage the table of contents alerts you wish to receive. You can also use this feature to save searches you like to run regularly.

Journal of Pediatrics

7-28-05 am - user email reported unable to access articles with the password.
10:30am -- institutional access has to be re-activated due to publisher changes. In progress mp.
10:45am -- reported to agent (EBSCO). I can get it to work at http://www2.us.elsevierhealth.com/inst/serve?action=searchDB&searchdbfor=pub&id=pd so please use that while agent updates their address. Passwords still work there. mp

"Archiv Orthop"

(We do not offer "free" online access to these titles, but articles can be obtained for you if needed.)

This is a tricky abbreviation. It can stand for a German, Italian or American title! Plus the voluming is similar in some older years.

German and English-language: (Note from rep at Springer, the company that now handles full text content for the English and German title) "The current title of 'Archiv fur Orthopadische und Unfall-chirurgie' is : Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery (Historical Archive) http://www.springerlink.com/openurl.asp?genre=journal&issn=0936-8051&target=archive and under the historical archive of this current title the content of the predecessors of this journal can be found. This current journal had the following predecessors:- Archives of orthopaedic and traumatic surgery- Archiv für orthopädische und Unfall-Chirurgie- Archiv für Orthopädie, Mechanotherapie und UnfallchirurgieIf you have a historic article you are looking for you can find it via the search engine. In future also the former journal titles will be searchable. Currently all tables of content and abstract of the historic content that is already available can be viewed." ISSN 0003-9330

Italian: the title is Archivio di Ortopedia ISSN 0004-0118

Scandinavian journals

Today I discovered that there is a 12 month "embargo" on some of the Scandinavian journals we access through the A-Z listings at the bottom of the Web-based Journals link. That means we can get them in full text online after 12 months. I'll be updating that information on the website soon.

Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery

8-8-05 update from agent: The missing content in The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery V87 #3 -7 has been added to the EJS service.

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery online content is delayed through our direct link, but you can still get to it by clicking through to the publisher site. There they have more recent issues posted.

8-1-05 update from our agent -- The content team is still working with the publisher to secure the missing content in Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery V87 #3 - #7.

New England Journal of Medicine

Our subscription does not include current online access. However, after 6 months full text of Original and Special Articles is available online. Also, articles in the most current issue often make the news before print subscribers even receive their issues. If you need an article, please contact the librarian.

J Hand Surgery - British

Journal of Hand Surgery, the British version, is now available to us online for a rolling 12 months. That means when the new issue is available, the 13th issue drops off online access. I'll add it next time I update the website, but for now you can reach it here:

http://ejournals.ebsco.com/Journal.asp?JournalID=104130

J Hand Surgery British
