Research Guides: Alumni Information and Links: Introduction

Welcome

The Health Sciences Library often receives requests from UTHSC alumni for access to our licensed online journals and databases, which are restricted to current faculty, students, staff, and residents.

To date, it has been prohibitively expensive to get vendors to include alumni at little or no additional cost for access to our licensed databases and online journals.

Questions, comments or suggestions can be sent to library@uthsc.edu.
