ExamMaster and Psychiatry Online
The WVU Health Sciences Library is currently conducting a trial evaluation of the ExamMaster database. ExamMaster is an online test prep resource for the Health Sciences. It covers USMLE, Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, OB/GYN, SPEX, Emergency Medicine, Pharmacy (NAPLEX), Dentistry (NBDE Part 1), Physician Assistant (PANCE), and Family Nurse Practitioner. There are extensive question banks for each discipline that allow the user to take realistic practice exams.
To get started with ExamMaster, go to http://www.exammaster2.com/wdsentry/wvuhsl.htm and click on "First Time Registration." Each user must register to receive a password to use with this resource. Once registered, the resource may be accessed from anywhere by using the above URL. The trial has been extended to run through June 30, 2009.
The HSC Library is also pleased to announce the addition of Psychiatry Online to our electronic resources. A portal to significant psychiatry references, this resource includes DSM-IV-TR and The American Journal of Psychiatry as its cornerstones. It also features the full-text of seven psychiatric textbooks, six psychiatric journals, the APA Practice Guidelines, patient information, the latest journal headlines, and clinical & research news. Email alerts, RSS feeds, and PDA downloads are available for the journals in Psychiatry Online.
Links to both of these resources can be found on the WVU Libraries’ Databases webpage at www.libraries.wvu.edu/databases. Please send any comments, questions, or feedback about ExamMaster or Psychiatry Online to Susan Arnold at susan.arnold@mail.wvu.edu.
