Library resources for students and researchers at The Faculty of Health Sciences.
Faculty, PhD and master students can schedule an appointment for guidance in literature search or systematic searching.
Is something missing in the library? Suggest literature or subscriptions for the library collection, and we will consider buying it.
Databases
The library has access to many databases that give you access to literature in the field of health.
In Oria, you will find an overview of databases relevant in nursing, health sciences, substance abuse, and mental health. Some of the databases are openly available, but you need library remote access.
Please contact us by email if you need help.
