This guide is meant to compile reputable sources of data and research relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. The resources and information linked here come from a variety of lists and social media sources, including the Medical Library Association COVID-19 Resources for Medical Librarians and other Information Professionals.
The guide includes links to update pages from a variety of local, national, and international sources. Lists of COVID-19 primary and secondary (evidence synthesis) are included on the Research tab. Freely available COVID-19 academic resources are listed in the box at the bottom of the page.
The COVID-19 guide will be updated as new resources become available, but may not be exhaustive in all areas. Other similar guides and resource lists are linked in the Other Resource Lists tab below. The Evidence Synthesis Specialist at the MSSU has also compiled a list of useful links here. For resources especially for Nova Scotia clinicians, check the NSHA library COVID-19 Research Guide.
