Behind the scenes, library staff are continually reviewing resources to offer the optimal collection for students, faculty and staff. Criteria include unique content, relevancy to programs, and cost. This week, the focus is on Examine. As a reminder, you’ll find the complete complement of databases by clicking on the Databases tab from the homepage.

Easy to navigate and refreshingly accessible, Examine provides evidence-based nutrition, herb, supplement and health information. Content includes health topics, study summaries and study deep dives, which discuss findings in detail and are fully referenced. The Human Effect Matrix grades levels of evidence and links to the studies. A search for lavender not only brings up the aforementioned sections, but also FAQs, Things to Note, and a Breakdown of the research. Another added bonus is a user-friendly guide on How to Read a Paper. You’ll find it on the menu at the bottom of the screen. As always, please contact the library if you have any questions: library@bastyr.edu.
