#19 - Databases

I loved this exercise! Can I just say that I love "Canadian Newsstand"? So great to be able to read the Globe & Mail online with my morning coffee (on my coffee break, of course.) How I wish we had some sort of global newsstand - I'd love to read the UK paper The Guardian! I must admit, other than Ebscohost, I'd never really looked at any of these databases - so this was an especially good discovery exercise for me.

"Consumer Health Complete" seems like a good resource...although more on the allopathic side, as far as I can tell. I did a few searches and couldn't find much specific info on certain homeopathic and aromatherapy remedies. Oh well, it's still good for indulging the hypochondriac in me!
