If you use the online version of Word in Office 365 or newer versions of the desktop version of Word for Mac or Windows, the old Write-N-Cite product has been replaced by the RefWorks Citation Manager. This add in is only available through the Office Store and, thanks to the help from Campus IT, it is now available for everyone to download and use.
Instructions on installing this extension are available in our RefWorks LibGuide. If you need help with this or any other Library resources, contact us.

A new collection has been added to the LSUHSC Digital Collection, the Robert Simmons Photograph Collection. The Robert Simmons collection features historical photographs of the fifth and building of the sixth Charity Hospitals, hidden camera photographs taken before cell phones, and the professors that taught the professors that taught your professors. Robert Simmons captured images of his time at LSU School of Medicine as a student and at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center as a professor. These images feature descriptions that were orally provided by Robert Simmons and feature a unique perspective of the school. Take a look and see if there’s anyone you recognize! If you have a question about the collection, or can provide more information about any of the photos you see, email digitalarchives@lsuhsc.edu
Scopus developers have fixed the sorting issue in Citation Overview. If you continue to have problems, please contact the library.
Original post:
The sorting functions are not working in Scopus Citation Overview. The Scopus developers are working on the problem. Citations can be exported and then sorted using Excel. Sorting in the regular results display is not affected.
We will update this blog post once the problem has been fixed.
UPDATE: The problem appears to be fixed, so all links to ClinicalKey from any Library resources should work correctly. Please contact us if you have trouble.
Links from the Library’s catalog, E-Journals & E-Books A to Z List, and the EDS Health Discovery service to books and journals in ClinicalKey are currently not working. This problem is affecting all ClinicalKey customers.
We have access to a selection of SAGE Health titles on the Sage Knowledge Online platform.
Key subject areas covered are Counselling & Psychotherapy, Education, Nursing & Medicine, Psychology, Research Methods & Academic Skills, and Social Work. This program provides online access to content that supports each learning modality: books and reports for traditional learners, videos for visual and auditory learners, and cases for tactile learners benefiting from step-by-step examples and re-usable experiments. The cross-disciplinary nature of this collection ensures faculty and students have vast and varied content to enhance their teaching and research.
Included in this subscription: -SAGE Knowledge Books & Reference: 118 eBooks in Psychology and Medicine & Health -SAGE Research Methods (SRM) Cases: Medicine & Health -SAGE Video: Counseling & Psychotherapy, Nursing, Psychology, and Social Work
This resource is fully funded by the the Louisiana Board of Regents and the LOUIS Library Network. Access to all of the collections is open through 6/30/2022 at which time each participating library will be able to select one collection for perpetual access.
We are happy to now offer more journals published by the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). In addition to our existing subscriptions to Radiology and Radiographics, we now have access to the newest journals published by the Society:
A new selection of articles have been added to the Faculty Publications display in the Ische Library. These eight articles, as well as all of the articles in our Faculty Publications database, are authored by at least one member of our research community here at LSUHSC-New Orleans. Each month the Library is proud to present copies of eight of these publications in a rotating display of 16. With the currently changes, we’ve decided to post the publications digitally. Check out the display below:
Publications cited in the Faculty Publications database are harvested weekly from a variety of sources, such as PubMed, SCOPUS, and CINAHL, to name a few. In addition to articles they include books, book chapters, papers, editorials, letters to the editor, and meeting abstracts, all authored by at least one member of the LSUHSC-NO community. The database is maintained by Reference Librarian Kathy Kerdolff and will be available to the general public here or via the Library’s webpage. A PDF of a bibliography of this month’s addition is available here. If you have an article you would like us to highlight or if you have any questions regarding the display or the database, you can contact Kathy Kerdolff.
UPDATE: The system is up and running, but contact us if you have any problems.
At 10am on Wednesday, December 22, 2021, INNOPAC, the Library’s online catalog will not be available for at least one hour. During this time you will also not be able to log into EZproxy using your Library barcode and PIN. The WebBridge Link Resolver is affected by this outage as well.
It’s a lot easier to know whether an article you’re reading or would like to cite has been retracted with new features available in LibKey Nomad, LibKey Link, and LibKey.io. These tools now make it easier than ever to see that something has happened to a published article and has been retracted.
If you use LibKey Nomad, you will see in your search results in many databases that the article has been retracted:
These alerts extend to LibKey Link and LibKey.io when you see this screen with options for getting the original article:
When you see this screen, it also provides additional information explaining why the article was retracted:
Finally, if you have LibKey Nomad and go to a publisher’s site for an article, you will see this icon displayed at the bottom of the page for a retracted article:
Hopefully this information will be useful in your research needs, but if you have any questions about this or any other Library resources contact us.
When you want to share a link to an article with classmates, colleagues, or your students, it’s important to make sure they can get to it regardless of whether they are on or off campus. We recommend using our off campus link generator to help with this, but sometimes the link may still not work right for any number of reasons. There’s good news, though, as LibKey.io can help!
LibKey.io is a quick way to find access to a journal article using just a PMID or DOI.
All you need to do is plug the number into the handy search box and it does all the heavy lifting to get you to the article. However, there is also another benefit to using LibKey.io: it gives you an easy link to share with others so they can get to an article easily.
When you search a PMID or DOI in LibKey.io, you will see this screen with options for getting the article:
A hidden benefit when you see this page, though, is the URL of the page can also be used as a permanent/durable link to get this article!
If you follow the Library’s link to Dynamed that routes through the EZproxy service, please be advised that images are not showing up for each topic now. This affects accessing Dynamed off campus or when on campus and connected to the LSUHSC-Secure wifi network.
Until this problem is fixed, you can access Dynamed directly using OpenAthens. First, go to https://www.dynamed.com and click on the person icon on the right of the page:
Then, click on the “Sign in now” link:
Next, click “Institutional OpenAthens” at the bottom of the screen:
At the next screen enter “lsu” in box on the right and choose “LSU Health Sciences Center Library” when it appears:
Finally, enter your full LSUHSC-NO e-mail address and current password and you will finally have access to Dynamed!
We will update when we have more information about this problem with Dynamed and EZproxy, but if you need help with this or any other Library resources, contact us.
November 15, 2021 Update: Good news! The new version of Web of Science now works with LibKey Nomad! You can use what is hopefully your favorite browser extension to help you get to articles more easily when searching Web of Science.
Now that LibKey Nomad supports the new Web of Science, when you search a topic, the results will give you quick access to PDFs:
The legacy version of Web of Science is set to be retired in early 2022, so this is a very welcome addition for LibKey Nomad.
If you need help with this or any other Library resources, contact us.

Original post from June 7, 2021: If you’ve started using the new version of Web of Science, please note that it is not yet compatible with LibKey Nomad.
In the old version of Web of Science, you will see the LibKey Nomad enhancements including journal cover images and quick links to PDFs from the search results:
In the new Web of Science you will only see links to our WebBridge LR link resolver that will help you get the full text of the article:
We will update when the new Web of Science supports LibKey Nomad, but if you need help with this or any other Library resources please contact us.
Update, 11/9/2021: EBSCO has resolved issues with their platform. If you continue to experience problems please contact the library: reference@lsuhsc.edu.
EBSCO has reported problems with multiple products including our EBSCO Discovery search system and EBSCO eBooks collections. They are working to resolve the issues. We will update the blog once everything is back to normal.
