The Library will not renew our institutional subscription to Read by QxMD, so you may see reduced functionality starting in June. You will still be able to set subject alerts and share articles, but getting to full text will be slightly more difficult.
If an article is available for free, you will be able to access it with no trouble. However, if a subscription is required to view the full text, you may be asked to log in. Please remember that the Library is a member of the OpenAthens federation, so you will be able to use your LSUHSC-NO e-mail and password to log in to publishers who support that option.
We are still maintaining full access to BrowZine, and it can also be accessed via desktop or mobile applications.
If you have any questions about this or any other Library services, please contact us.
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 is 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.

It can be a struggle getting to articles when searching PubMed. Although we suggest you use our link to PubMed that turns on our link resolver, we know that’s not always the most convenient way. There is, however, a nifty little tool that makes getting articles in PubMed really easy.
LibKey Nomad is a handy browser plugin that enhances PubMed and brings the Library’s journal holdings to you. It is available for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Vivaldi, and Brave browsers.
When installed, you will see PubMed come to life with new links to articles:
You can get to articles directly from your search results, so no more clicking back and forth to view the abstract and then see if we have access to that article!
Installing LibKey Nomad is easy. Just start at https://libkeynomad.com and then choose your browser. Once you’ve installed it, search for LSU and then choose “LSU Health Sciences Center”:
Now you’re good to go and you’ll wonder how you ever searched PubMed without LibKey Nomad.
The benefits of LibKey Nomad are not exclusive to PubMed; if you search Scopus or Web of Science, this tool also works with those sites.
More information about setting up and using LibKey Nomad can be found on our LibGuide. However, if you need any information about this or any other Library resources please contact us.

BoardVitals has created a new registration link for our LSUHSC-New Orleans patrons. The registration link and other information is now available on our BoardVitals database web page: https://www.lsuhsc.edu/library/databases/boardvitals.aspx
NEW USERS, PLEASE USE THE SECOND LINK ON OUR BOARDVITALS DATABASE PAGE WHEN YOU REGISTER. (SEE BELOW)
If you have already registered, and you are not able to see the question banks for LSU Health Sciences Center – New Orleans, please contact the library for assistance. You can check your access by going to “Add/Manage Question Bank Favorites”.
If you see LSU Health Science Center – New Orleans, you are good to go.
If you see Louisiana State University – Shreveport, your access is not correct and we will need to have BoardVitals correct your account.
Please let us know if you have any problems or need further assistance.
We are still experiencing some technical difficulties with our Board Vitals subscription. It seems that most of the issues are with relatively new accounts.
We have contacted support for assistance and will update the blog when the issue has been resolved. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
The Library was able to add a current subscription to and purchase the available backfiles for ASHA Perspectives. You can now read all of the Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups from 2016 to present.
You can also access the archives of all 19 sections of the ASHA Special Interest Groups. Most are available for 1997 through 2015.
We hope these additions will be of help, but if you have any questions about this or any other Library resources please contact us.
The Library has made a new subject guide meant to help online instructors use library materials in their classes. More information and the subject guide can be found HERE.
