A web site that markets or redistributes software from various publishers. It is by subject area too and appears to be quite useful. I take the name and other info and get more info on Login Brothers site (below).

Available in print and on disk. I have not checked it. It is a bookstore that sells software, like Login Brothers. There is a lot that does not cross the Atlantic.

This catalogue is about 2 years old and is also available in print and on floppy disk. "Software for Health Sciences Education: A resource Catalog." Learning Resource Center University of Michigan Medical Center, 1135 E. Catherine Ave., Ann Arbor, MI 48109-0726. Hard copy or electronic version. Cost is about $50. The seventh edition, 1996 is described at: http://www.med.umich.edu/lrc/catalog/catalog.html I am not sure if they have funds to continue updating this, a big chore.

This site is managed physician for medical students and residents. Has links to the commercial sites. Says it has reviews, but not that many are really reviews, some are links to commercial sites. The reviewers dont give their names

This is what we should really suppport and use. I am guilty of not doing so.

The interactive brain atlas, atlas of hematology, videodiscs, etc. come from here.

Detailed listing as of 1997. This gives you access to most of the UK software. However, the database does not seem to be up there now. CTI Centre for Medicine located at University of Bristol produces a "Guide to Software and Resources for Computer Based Learning," March 1996, 3rd edition.

Also lists web sites. Stewart Publishing also has other health care directories and an annual workshop. They have various electronic directories you can buy on CD or disk. StewartPub@aol.com

"Medicine on the Net" published by COR Healthcare Resources http://www.mednet-i.com is a great place for finding out about new web sites and other issues regarding the net. Subscription is $99/year, issued monthly.

Another magazine is "e.MD" published by McGraw-Hill Healthcare Information Group. Brian Bergeron, MD and former multimedia producer as a medical student, is the editor.
