EBP Exchange - UMB School of Social Work

One of the challenges of keeping practice evidence-informed is the high cost of journal subscriptions, especially in agencies which do not have many resources for such purchases.  Building on work done at the University of Michigan, the University of Maryland School of Social Work has identified some resources that can be used by field instructors from publically available open access settings.  Fortunately a growing number of journals are open access and all articles published with the support of NIH will soon be available–after a 12-month delay–via pubmed central (PMC), http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/. Some journals already deposit their materials in PMC
