Health Sciences: B3 Health Sciences Resources

Welcome!

This is a collection of health sciences resources that support UTRGV's mission to be a bilingual, bicultural, biliterate (B3) institution. The recommendations below highlight some of the resources available at the University Library, but this is by no means an exhaustive list. If you would like to learn more about UTRGV's B3 vision, please visit the Office for Bilingual Integration's website.

General Tips
  • With the UTRGV Library Catalog, as well as most databases, search results can be filtered by language, making it quick and easy to locate Spanish-language content.
     
  • For some databases (such as Science Direct and PubMed)  , the user interface can be presented in various languages, including Spanish. This feature may be available within the database's user settings or via a "languages" option at the top-right of the resource's main page.

 

  • Generally, searches conducted in library catalogs and academic databases retrieve the same results for terms and names containing accents/other diacritics, whether the accents are included in the search or not (for example, a search for "Mexico" will produce the same results as "México"). However, some search engines will yield differing results when an accent or diacritic is present vs. not. It may be worth using both variants if exhaustive search results are needed.
