We can perform literature searches for employees looking for the best evidence to support patient care, policies, or research. We are happy to meet with students to support their literature search skills, but we will not complete searches for school assignments. Simply complete this form to request a search.
Keeping up to date with the latest research in your field is vital, but it is time consuming. We can email the table of contents for journals or the results of a weekly or monthly literature search on topics of interest. Email us to find out more or request an alert.
Use our document delivery service to get the full-text of articles delivered to your email address. If we don’t have it, we can order it from our partner libraries. Email us with the citation information for the article(s).
We can help you determine if materials you want to use are protected by copyright. We can advise you on how to avoid predatory publishers and retain ownership of your intellectual property if you are considering publishing. Email us to find out more or ask a question.
We teach literature searching and information management to individuals and groups. We are experts at searching and can teach you how to get better results. Email us to find out more or request a session.
We work with employees throughout Cook Children's Health Care System to produce handouts, booklets and other material used to educate patients about their health and medical treatment. Visit the Patient Education and Health Literacy page on CookNet to learn more.
