Bioethics  Tags: bioethics medical_ethics biotechnology  

This guide is meant to support research in the interdisciplinary field of Bioethics.  Although aimed at students in the LMU Bioethics Institute graduate program, interested grad and undergrad students may find some of the information helpful, and are welcome to use this guide and contact the responsible librarian for help.

Thanks to Tim Ruggles, librarian at Dalhousie University's W. K. Kellogg Health Sciences Library, for allowing me to adapt content from his LibGuide material for the present one.

Our transition to the William H Hannon Library is in process.  There will be an unavoidable delay in access to  some materials.  Be prepared to use LINK+ and InterLibrary Loan to get the books you need that are marked for storage.  This means you will have to order them early (3 working days for LINK+, a week or longer for InterLibrary Loan) in order to get them in time.  Our online resources, including databases and periodicals subscriptions, are up and running.

This guide should help students find resources at LMU and elsewhere that will help with their research investigations and writing.  Tony Amodeo is the Library's liaison for Bioethics (see box at right), and takes phone calls, e-mail messages and appointments.  Don't hesitate to contact other Reference librarians for help as well, whether in person at the Reference Desk, via phone, chat help or instant messaging (see box below).

This is a work-in-progress.  Let us know how to make it better!

We're Here to Help!
