Immediate and Unrestricted Access, via OvidSP, to Thousands of Full-Text Resources from Peer-Reviewed and Scholarly International Journals
Today’s medical and scientific professionals—whether they’re involved in research or clinical practice—require easy access to research material that’s published everywhere in the world so they can keep up-to-date on the latest theories and practices and improve healthcare outcomes. That’s why the Open Access publishing model—which enables the free and fast flow of important papers, studies, and articles—is so critical to the research life cycle.
The benefits of Open Access publishing include:
- Immediate access to unrestricted research—including evidence-based material—produced by medical and healthcare professionals located all over the world
- Discovery of hard-to-find research published globally
- A shared forum for the public discussion of current and up-to-date medical research
- Increased visibility for authors of cutting-edge research
- Easy dissemination of important research findings, especially for educational purposes
- Cost reductions for budget-challenged institutions and those in emerging economies
