    • What content is available in OhioHealth Scholarly Works?

    OhioHealth Scholarly Works encompasses the scholarly output of the OhioHealth system. This includes but is not limited to journal articles, books, book chapters, presentations, posters, meeting abstracts, and archival materials. OhioHealth Library Services conducts regular author affiliation searches in PubMed and other databases and often provides a link to the original publication. Open Access articles are readily available, but full-text of some items may be restricted due to copyright or licensing agreements. We are actively working to add archival content as this is an ongoing project.
