Helpful Web Sites
-----------------
Hi everyone, I'm new to all of this and I just joined in. I was interested
in the conversation dealing with electronic media and medical literature
resources. I'm very new to the internet, so I thought I would just mention
a couple of sites that I have found to be very helpful when in need of
medical literature:
http://www.critpath.org/aric/pwarg-08.htm (AIDS/HIV Info)
http://www5.medscape.com/default.html (medical database)
http://www.mcs.com/~ablock/www/medweb.html (medical database)
Also, if anyone else should have any information about good web sites, the
information would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Buddy Bates

[Recently a number of free MEDLINE sites have appeared on the net. Some
need one-time registration but all of them allow MEDLINE access free of
charge:
http://www.medscape.com (see above)
http://www.hon.ch (via medscape)
http://www.healthgate.com
http://healthy.net/library/search/edline.htm
http://www.nlightn.com
For those without real-time internet connection a MEDLINE search is also
possible via e-mail (not free of charge). An off-line search can be
prepared by �GRATEFUL MED� software and the request is sent via e-mail
using BITNIS (Batch Internet National Library of Medicine Information
System). Mod.]
