As librarians, we understand the importance of quickly finding the authoritative and timely information that you need. Because of that, we have created two coronavirus/COVID-19 LibGuides.
The first guide is a collaboration between Maggie Nunley (Teaching & Learning Librarian at Alderman Library), and Kimberley Barker (Librarian for Digital Life at Claude Moore Health Sciences Library). Maggie and Kimberley will update the guide throughout the pandemic to insure that you have access to timely information and extensive coverage of the topic.
The guide is here: https://guides.lib.virginia.edu/covid19 and includes sections on:
- Current Updates (Situation Summaries, Local Updates, Dashboards, Archived Communications)
- CDC Coronavirus Microsite ("This micro-site is part of the CDC Public Health Media Library and is update regularly with the most current information about coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19): outbreak locations, risk assessment, and travel guidance.")
- Resources for the Public (Prevention)
- Resources for Researchers (Databases, Specialized Search pages, Data Repositories)
- Misinformation and the Infodemic (Tracking Information, Fact Checking Resources, The Infodemic)
- Infographics and Posters (Only the Facts, Infographics)
- Media Resources (Online Print, Videos, Podcasts)
- Data Resources (Dashboards, Visualizations)
The second guide was created by Abbey Heflin (Head of Collections Management) at Claude Moore Health Sciences Library, and is found here:
