This is a very difficult time, I’m sure, and we do hope that the days ahead will be easier for those in the affected areas and the many people outside the affected areas who are offering their assistance. I’m writing to let you know that several publishers and the US National Library of Medicine are offering selected medical journals, electronic medical books and databases at no cost to people in the Philippines who have a Philippine-based IP or computer address. These materials will be available for at least a month and we urge you to take advantage of these resources, as needed, to support and improve medical response and to supplement your library’s services. Many of these resources are usually only available by subscription but are now offered at no cost by publishers interested in supporting recovery efforts in the Philippines. I have listed the resources below and ask that you please share them widely with those who may benefit from this access. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments about these resources. Thank you, -Cindy Love, U.S. National Library of Medicine _________________ News release: “National Library of Medicine Launches Emergency Access Initiative, Granting Free Access to Books and Journals for Those Responding to Typhoon Haiyan” http://www.nlm.nih.gov/news/typhoon_emergency_access.html NLM Emergency Access Initiative http://eai.nlm.nih.gov All resources are free through December 9, 2013.
