Join us on Zoom on Tuesday, March 19, 2024 at 12-1pm for an introduction to systematic and scoping reviews. Registration is now open!

Have you heard of systematic and scoping reviews, but maybe you’re not sure what goes into one? This webinar will provide you with an introduction to the basics of these reviews. We’ll also discuss how to use the Library’s Systematic Review Service to make the process more productive and give you better results.

Our Library Staff will begin to display our various posters and other scholarly works by the printers in the Library. First in the rotation is from our Research & Scholarly Communication Librarians: Sally Gore, Lisa Palmer, Tess Grynoch, and Leah Honor. “Research output of Morningside Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences faculty: A visual review” will be on display for the next few weeks.

We’re excited to announce that the Lamar Soutter Library, UMass Chan Medical School, has signed on to a Read and Publish Agreement with Cambridge University Press (CUP). This agreement was made possible thanks to the NorthEast Research Libraries Consortium (NERL), of which we are a member.

The library is migrating to a new website platform for eScholarship@UMassChan, which will bring substantial benefits in searching, submission, workflow, and efficiency.  On Wednesday, September 14, 2022, URLs for content in eScholarship will redirect to the new website: https://repository.escholarship.umassmed.edu/
