Abstract
Abstract Libraries are in the business of reviewing and recommending resources to patrons. One vital emerging resource is mobile mental health apps. Although these resources are new to the market and sometimes considered controversial, it is essential for libraries to at least be informed about their benefits, challenges, and future opportunities. This article will give an overview of these resources, leaving it up to patrons and other librarians to decide if they are appropriate to use.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Electronic Resources in Medical Libraries is a peer-reviewed professional journal devoted to the access, evaluation, and management of electronic resources in the medical library environment. This journal will be an essential resource for academic medical school libraries, hospital libraries, and other health sciences libraries. The material in the Journal of Electronic Resources in Medical Libraries will complement articles published in Medical Reference Services Quarterly (also edited by M. Sandra Wood), which highlights the reference and bibliographic instruction aspects of electronic resources.
