Accessing resources in VetMed Resource
1. Searches performed from the homepage of VetMed Resource will retrieve results from the CABI content hosted in that collection. In the far left column under Applied Filters, the VetMed Resource filter will be seen.
Results are grouped for display according to content type: “Abstract records” tab includes results for all CABI’s database products; “Articles/Chapters” tab displays results for full text content published by CABI, including book chapters, journal articles (like CABI Reviews), CABI Compendium Datasheets, and Cases; “Publications” displays results from whole book titles and whole CABI journals; News/Blogs/Events displays the latest news, informative blog and an overview of relevant events.
2. To view content in the results from the Abstract records tab, which displays records from various publishers, select the access option available in the far bottom right of the citation record that may include Open URL, PDF/EPUB, etc.
In each citation, you will see the name of the resource, the type of content, language, and date. Results can be filtered by content type at the left.
Clicking the title of the citation will open the record. The same options for viewing the content will be found inside the individual record page.
