ABSTRACT

HealthWeb is a selective Internet resource that links users to annotated, evaluated Internet resources in the health sciences. A collaborative effort of librarians from more than twenty academic institutions, it is a valuable tool for librarians at the Reference Desk and during instruction sessions. Contents of the Reference Resources section are highlighted, as well as an example of use of the Nursing page during a typical class.
