Ovid to Update User Interface

Ovid plans on updating its interface on June 30, 2010. Included will be a new feature called My Workspace which requires a Personal Account. My Workspace is a dedicated area where users will be able to assemble and organize their research findings into projects and folders. Now is a great time to create a Personal Account and to test the new interface. To access the new interface open Ovid and then click on the “Try it now!” button at the top of the page.


AHRQ Releases a New Health Literacy Toolkit

The Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality (AHRQ) has issued a new web-based “Health Literacy Universal Precautions” toolkit. Because you can’t tell a patient’s health literacy level just by looking at them, this toolkit introduces universal precautions that can be followed to ensure clear understanding and communication. Access the toolkit here: http://www.ahrq.gov/qual/literacy/.
