Service |
| The University of South Alabama Biomedical Library is committed to
extending the same services and resources to its online students as
it does to its local users. In order to accomplish this we have created
a series of web pages designed to help online students to effectively
access and use the library's many resources. |
 |
|
Online Resources |
| Most of the resources the library has to offer are available to online
students. Only in a few instances will you find a database or e-journal
that is only available to students on campus. If this is the case please
contact us at the reference desk (phone: 251/460-7044 email: medlib@bbl.usouthal.edu)
or live chat and we will try to assist you. |

Access & Descriptions |
For an overview and portal to the Biomedical Library's online resources
start with the Electronic Databases and Resources page:
[http://southmed.usouthal.edu/library/resources/index.htm]
This page contains a list of the library's primary databases, as well as a description
and tips on how to use them. |
|
|
Log-In Information |
| When you attempt to access many of these resources a box should appear
asking for your last name and the last four digits of your social security
number. After filling in this information you should be taken directly
into the database you chose. If the box does not appear or you have
trouble loggin in you may want to check this troubleshooting page.
If you are still unable to access the USA databases you should contact
us right away. |
