VetMed Resource

Veterinary Science Database is now available as VetMed Resource.  VetMed Resource was created by CABI as a response to demand for a single comprehensive information resource containing all of CABI's veterinary information to provide optimum support for veterinarians.  It is an online resource designed to support veterinary practitioners, technicians and others working in this field by providing comprehensive and high quality information.  In addition to all of the journals, proceedings, and compendiums available with Veterinary Science Database, we now have access to bulletins, CAB reviews, and the Animal Health and Production Compendium.
