UC Library Guides: Literature Reviews for the Health Sciences: Where to search

Overview

Where you will look for information on your research will be guided by your research topic. Databases, library catalogues, specialist collections, online resources and print resources may need to be considered

Databases

It is recommended that you identify appropriate databases for your research via the Library Subject Guides.. Each Library guide lists and links to the databases most relevant and useful for that subject area.
