Cebam Digital Library for Health (DLH)

Cebam DLH in general

The ITM Library has licenced a large electronic journal package via Cebam, the Belgian Evidence-BAsed Medicine Center. This rich and diverse collection includes a.o.:

  • 700 additional Elsevier journals, including e.g. Social Science and Medicine and Journal of Clinical Epidemiology.

  • 350 Lippincott Williams and Wilkins journals, including e.g. Academic Medicine and Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases.

  • 1,000 SpringerLink biomedical, life sciences, and medicine journals, including e.g. Archives of Virology and Current Microbiology.

  • Over 4,000 Ebrary e-books.

  • Lots of evidence-based medicine content, including BMJ Clinical Evidence and other European guidelines.

  • Several pharmacopoeias (via MicroMedex).

Cebam DLH at ITG
  • Unlike most of our current subscriptions the Cebam DLH is not a commercially available package and as such it does not feature automatic IP recognition of the ITG site, but requires individual login accounts. These - grouped per ITM unit - can be obtained from the library at docdel@itg.be. Successful logins remain valid for the whole day. You can chose to let your computer remember your credentials indefinitely.

    If you login to Cebam DLH's home page, you will need to click on the Tijdschriften - Alfabetisch link on the left column to get a survey of the available journals.

  • A selection of these journals is integrated in the ITM Library's E-journals list. These links bring you - via the login page - to Cebam DLH's alphabetic journals list, but not directly to the specific journals pages.

  • Take care: only the 350 Lippincott journals are included here

  • For Elsevier journals, click on the Elsevier Freedom Collection link, which will give you an alphabetical list of some 700 Elsevier journals.

  • For Springer journals, click on the Springerlink Full Text link. Unfortunately this brings you to a general SpringerLink survey, from which it is not immediately clear which of these many resources is covered by the Cebam HLH collection (i.e. titles with a green square in front of them). You'll need some additional browsing to get to the journal pages you need.

  • The Ebsco Medline Full Text link gives you no additional advantages, as ITM already subscribes to this Ebsco collection directly.

  • Also the Wiley Interscience Full Text collection already has a direct Wiley Online Library subscription link.

  • Although included in Cebam DLH, ITM also has a direct fully functional Cochrane Library subscription.

  • To consult the thousands of Ebrary and Springer E-books you can navigate from the Cebam DLH homepage options. Remember that a selection of available e-books is included in the ITM Library Catalog with direct links (or combinations of links) and with superior accessibility options for certain Springer collections.

  • The ITM Library has no influence on the way Cebam DLH functions. Browsing may at times be fairly complicated and slow. You may also be asked to login at different stages of the process.
