Finding Information

E-Journals

We use Serials Solutions to provide the list of our electronic journals.

You can search the E-Journals collection by:

  • browsing the A-Z list
  • by entering a partial title in a search box
  • by subject (choose Health Sciences from the drop-down list)
  • by collection (choose DirectLinks to Publishers to visit their websites)

Databases

A-Z list of databases

Article Linker

Article Linker makes one-click access to full-text possible in most of our databases. Look for the Article Linker icon and follow it to a list of possible full-text sources for your article or for options to finding full-text in print if none is available online.

 

Online Catalog

The HAM-TMC Librarys' online catalog is a joint venture of the Texas Health Science Libraries Consortium and gives you access to bibliographic information about all of the print and digital materials held in each of the Consortium's member libraries. Many bibliographic records for digital resources will provide links out to those resources as well. Future development plans for the catalog include digital image collections and local digital dissertation collections.

 

Scholarly Publishing

The Scholarly Publishing Blog offers you up-to-date information on copyright, open access, and other digital information issues, including links to useful websites on these topics. The blog also gives you an opportunity to comment, so check it out and give us your opinion, ask questions, and join in the conversation!


Digital Dissertations

Digital: find bibliographic information and full-text in the ProQuest Digital Dissertations database.

Print: the print dissertations collections are housed offsite at the Historical Research Center. These materials can be checked out. Search for specific titles or by subject in the Online Catalog, then either visit the HRC or request delivery of the items you want to the HAM-TMC Library.

Practice Guidelines

The list of Practice Guidelines provides links to most of the associations, organization, and agencies that make their guidelines available on the web.

In addition, you can locate practice guidelines in the American College of Physicians PIER and other evidence-based medicine resources.

Rice University Fondren Library and HAM-TMC Library in collaboration

A collaborative effort to provide access to combined holdings at both libraries is underway. Currently, faculty holding appointments at both a TMC educational institution (UT-Houston Medical School, GSBS, etc. or Baylor College of Medicine, for example) and Rice University are eligible to access our combined electronic resources. More information about projects, programs, and policies is available at the Fondren Library-HAM-TMC Library website.
