Database of the Month: Salem Health

For the month of February, our database of the month is Salem Health.  Salem Health brings together Salem Press' award winning print reference works in an online, searchable format.  The database originally began online to make access to the Magill's Medical Guide easy for consumers and researches and it now contains titles from across the medical and health fields.  The online reference resources contain information that is readable and accessible to patients and health care workers.

Topics in the online database are grouped into 8 major categories that allow for flexible searching and browsing.  Subject areas are:

  • Anatomy & Physiology  
  • Diagnosis & Testing  
  • Diseases, Disorders, & Symptoms  
  • Mental Health  
  • Prevention & Lifestyle  
  • Social Issues  
  • Specialties & Health Care Providers  
  • Treatment & Therapy 

Access to library databases is limited to the current students, staff, and faculty of Monmouth College.
