Mobile Resources from the Claude Moore Health Sciences Library (University of Virginia)

Today's mobile site comes from the Claude Moore Health Sciences Library in Charlottesville, VA (part of UVa).

It's accessible at: http://mobile.hsl.viriginia.edu and features numerous resources.

Although, we were unable to access the mobile service from a desktop browser, this page lists all of the features that are available. We also looked at the site from our iPhone. The site is quite easy on the eyes which is important when you're staring at a small screen for even a few minutes. Plus, well, it just looks nice.

From the Health Science Library mobile site you can access:

+ Library Info

+ Useful Medical Related iPhone/Touch Apps

+ Connect with a Librarian

+ Events at the Hospital

+ More Medical Resources

Ready access to School of Medicine iPhone/iTouch web resources including ref cards, clinical videos, epocrates, formulary and more.

+ Watch Clinical Videos and Presentations

+ Search for People at UVa

+ View Live Webcams of Downtown Mall, and UVA Rotunda web cams.

+ Access Bus Schedules

Also, very minor but useful, the main number of the library is at the bottom of each page.

That's one robust set of resources. We wouldn't be surprised to check back in a month or two and find more content. Kudos to the Claude Moore Health Sciences Center.

Btw, the University of Virgina Library also has its own mobile site (beta) that's available at: m.lib.virginia.edu.
