The University of Genoa Library System together with the Dean's office of Medicine Department offers to the UNIGE scientific community, the access to UPTODATE, a resource from Wolters Kluwer that provides access to evidence-based information and scientific documents for clinical practice and research.
HOW TO ACCESS
An individual mandatory registration to the service is needed. So you must create your individual username and password (see instructions step by step below).
The registration must be done from a PC in the Unige internet network (pc located in an open space or the library, personal device connected with genuawifi or to the Unige proxy).
SUBSEQUENTLY, after registration, you can access Uptodate autonomously from anywhere with your credentials, both from the web browser https://uptodate.com/online and by the free APP Uptodate downloadable from the Apple store or Google Play. Use is permitted from a maximum of 3 devices.
EVERY 90 DAYS YOU MUST ACCESS UPTODATE FROM THE UNIGE INTERNET NETWORK to report your affiliation to the publisher again (if you are abroad the Library helps you: send an email to bibliomedfarm@unige.it).
