Abstract

This paper will is a review of the development of the virtual health sciences libraries. Virtual/digital libraries provide full text access to selected journals and books. Since, the needs of researchers and academicians cannot be met from any single source of information, integrating RSS with virtual health sciences libraries can help provide more comprehensive, up-to-date and full text information. This can prove valuable in meeting the health information needs of providers and decision-makers in developing nations, helping close the know-do gap. [Paper presented at the Forum 9 conference].
