The release of a new search interface plus a range of new features make Health and Wellness Resource Center even better! Available to all current Health and Wellness Resource Center users, the enhancements are designed to:

1. Make the database easier to use by offering more opportunities to browse through the database and by enhancing your search options
2. Add new pathways to information by adding two new tabs "Videos" and "News" now have their own 'homes' in your search results
3. Lead users to current and reliable health information by exposing more of the rich content and then labeling it so that it's easier to find a resource. "Reference" is now "eBooks and Fact Sheets" and "Other Sites" is now "Trusted Sites" See for yourself! Look for these new features in your Health and Wellness Resource Center this week:
