Welcome
This guide is meant to serve as an introduction to various healthcare based databases and websites that many students in the healthcare field may need.
Each tab has a brief introduction of the database and some tutorial videos. I have also provided a tab on using medical terminology and an additional help tab with basic research information.
Researching can be an extremely frustrating process but it doesn't have to be. LSU Libraries and the librarians are here to help you with any of your research questions.
Please use this guide as needed and please, as always, let me know if you have any questions.
