How to Use this Research Guide

Most pages in this research guide for first-year medical students contain course-specific content in the Library & Archives Collection. Others contain general resource content, such as the tabbed page for flashcards and other helpful tools or the page that displays links to databases. Just click each tab to find content that supports you for each course you take as a first-year medical student. 

Off-Campus Access to Resources

When seeking to use the Digital Library (DL) from home or elsewhere, users must first click the "Off-Campus Login" button at the top right of the webpage. Once signed in with Meharry credentials, do not forget to close the original Digital Library webpage you opened and use the new DL page that pops up. Now you're all set to start using the library's subscribed resources available to all Meharrians!
