The new version of Google Books offers a few tools which will likely have an impact on the future of medical education. This Google service helps you:
- Create your own virtual library online
- Review the books
- Share the list
- Let people subscribe via RSS and get updated when you add new books
- Search within the books you selected
The newly launched version of Google Books makes all that possible and more.
For example, a residency program or a medical school can create a list of recommended books which can be reviewed online by faculty, residents and medical students. Click here to see a sample medical library I assembled today in 5 minutes (a screenshot is shown above).
You have to be signed in with a Google account in order to create your own library.
