Global Health Clinical Tools Pages

The Medical Center Library has developed customized Web pages for Duke partner sites so that local practitioners who do not have access to Duke collections can easily access quality medical information online. These pages are streamlined to be able to load quickly in locations with low bandwidth. Resources on the pages include local databases of medical articles (e.g., African Index Medicus, BIREME), a PubMed search interface in native language, where available, and location-specific disease information. Currently there are pages for Duke programs in Nicaragua, Tanzania, and Kenya. These pages are linked off the Library's Global Health Subject Guide. If you are working with a Duke site that is interested in a page, please contact Megan von Isenburg at (919) 660-1131.
