How can I find medical dictionaries?

 

 


Answer

Some of the Ritz Library's latest medical dictionaries can be found online in electronic format.

Here are a few searching steps to follow to narrow your results: 

> On the Ritz Library homepage, type medical dictionary in the main search box and search on it -- a new tab will open with your search results

> To the left you'll see a column with a list of filters -- choose Resource Type first

> In the list that appears, choose Books and wait for the results list to reload

Scrutinize the list carefully, it make take a few moments to find a title that is a medical dictionary but you should be able to determine which choices are valid

If you're required to find the most recent med dictionaries, say within the past 5 years, then follow this step: 

> To the left again, choose Creation Date -- you'll see two years in boxes, change the older year to the left, to 5 years ago 

> Click Refine to the right and wait for the results list to reload again

If you have difficulty, contact the Reference Desk or make use of the chat tab to the right of the page.
