http://ebling.library.wisc.edu
Ebling
Library
is
the
health
sciences
library
on
the
Madison
campus.
While
many
of
the
resources
of
the
Ebling
Library
are
available
to
the
general
public
on‐line,
access
to
subscription
databases,
full‐text
journals
and
other
resources
frequently
used
by
physicians
is
available
only
if
you
visit
the
library
in
person
or
sign
in
on‐line
through
My
UW,
as
above,
or
through
the
Ebling
website.
For
this,
you
need
your
NetID.
If
you
are
working
on
the
Ebling
Library
website
and
select
a
resource
for
which
access
is
restricted,
you
will
be
prompted

your
UW‐Madison
NetID
in
order
to

the

UW‐Madison
portal:
either
by
signing
in

My
UW
(at
www.wisc.edu)
before
going
to
the
library
website,
or
by
signing
in
through
the
library
website
when
prompted.
If
you
go
straight
to
the
web
address
of
a
database
or
E‐Journal
and
do
not
come
through
a
UW‐
Madison
web
space,
you
will
not
be
prompted
for
your
NetID
and
will
not
have
access
to
all
the
resources
of
the
database,
including
full‐text
articles.

If
you
have
entered
the
Ebling
site
directly,
without
going
through
the
My
UW
authentication
hub,
and
then
select
a
restricted
database
or
service,
you
will
get
the
“Remote

screen,
where
you
should
check
“Yes”
to
“Are
You
UW‐Madison
Faculty,
Staff
or

and
then
click
on
“Login
with
your
NetID”:
When
you
click
on
the
“Login

link
in
the
screen
above,
you
will
get
the
UW

where
you
enter
your
username
and
password
Be
sure
that
you
have
selected
“UW‐Madison

on
the
“Campus”
line.
After
entering
your
NetID
and
password,
you
will
then
see
the
screen
for
the
database
or
service
you
have
selected
and
can
proceed
with
your
research.

Please

that,
due
to
licensing

a
few
of
these
databases
may
be
available
only
if
you
are

UpToDate
is
an
evidence‐based
electronic
information
resource
that
provides

you
need

(without
going
through
the
UW

Hub),
when
you
click
on
UptoDate
or
another
database
in
the
left
hand
column,
you
will
see

Document
Delivery
and
Interlibrary
Loan
If
you
do
not
find
the
article
you
are
looking
for
via
the
on‐line
databases,
or
if
you
would
like
to
borrow
a
book,
the
services
of
the
UW‐Madison
Libraries
Interlibrary
Loan
are
available
to
you.
There
is
no
charge
for
this
service
to
individuals
with
a
UW‐Madison
ID,
however
the
UW
library
would
like
you
to
know
that:
While we are proud to offer article delivery and interlibrary loan services at no cost to our users,
please note that the provision of these services is not without cost to the Libraries and the
University. In fact, it is quite expensive. We ask that you request only those items that you plan to
use directly in the course of your research, teaching, and study.
We are happy to provide for your research, teaching, and study needs, and will acquire the
materials you need as quickly and efficiently as possible. By being judicious in making your
requests, you can help to ensure that the Libraries are able to continue providing these services
free of charge.
To
access,
check
“Article
and
Book
Delivery”
on
the
Ebling
website,
(or
“Interlibrary
Loan
if
you
are
on
the
UW
Libraries
home
page.)
This
will
take
you
to
the
UW
Libraries
Interlibrary
Loan
page,
where
you
can
log
in
via
NetID
or
by
entering
your
UW‐Madison
ID
number.
You
need
an
11‐digit
ID
in
this
case.
(Current
ID
cards
feature
10
digits.
The
11th
digit
is
the
issue
code,
usually
noted
in
small
print
at
the
bottom
of
your
card.
If
you
have
not
yet
received
your
campus
ID
card
but
you
have
your
10
digit
ID
number,
try
a
zero
for
the
11th
digit.)
Questions
about
your
Login
ID
can
be
emailed
to
the
Library
Technology
Group
Help
Desk.
You
can
also
reach
the

by

You
will
also
find
a
section
on
library
services,
trainings
and

help,
and
a
User
Forum
to
share
resources,
recommendations,
and
provide
feedback
for
improvement
of
the

Future
plans
for
the
site,
if
funding
is
available,
include
addition
of
one
or
two
subscription
databases
that
would
be
available
to
AHEC
Affiliates
via
password
sign‐in.
This
is
a
resource
that
may
be
particularly
valuable
to
members
of
your
clinic
staff
who
do
not
have
UW‐Madison
appointments.
