Library Resources
The KansasCOM Library is all digital. Hopefully, you have experience searching and using library databases and resources, but even if you haven't, this session will prepare you to use our library! The orientation session will focus primarily on accessing and using our medical textbook collection but will also cover other medical resources, library services and an introduction to our medical librarian.
