Resource of the month

RightsLink from the Cochrane Library
www.thecochranelibrary.com

The Cochrane Library, published quarterly by Wiley-Blackwell, has earned a global reputation as the "gold standard" of evidence-based medicine for healthcare decision-making. This resource is freely available online to anyone in the UK and the RSM Library provides a link out to the Cochrane Library through their remote access database service for RSM members.

On 14 January 2012, the Cochrane Library introduced a new feature to their web site – RightsLink. This is an automated online permissions clearing system from the Copyright Clearance Center allowing the re-use or republishing of content from Cochrane systematic reviews quickly and easily directly from a specific review's Abstract page.

A document containing further information and how to use RightsLink can be found here.
