DSM-5 Library / PsychiatryOnline Offer 2014-2015

Response Deadline: 
September 26, 2014

Subscription Term

Begins: 

January 1, 2015

Ends: 

December 31, 2015

e-HLbc is pleased to offer a subscription to the American Psychiatric Publishing (APP) DSM-5 / Psychiatry Online, a Consortia Canada license negotiated by e-HLbc and the Ontario Council of University Libraries (OCUL). 

The vendor is a smaller publisher with very rigid structures. Consequently, this was a complicated license to negotiate, and the subscription process reflects this. 

APP is providing e-HLbc member institutions with a choice of three subscription packages: DSM-5 Library (DSM-5), PsychiatryOnline Core (POL Core), and PsychiatryOnline Premium (POL Premium). 

Participation discounts are aggregated for all three APP packages across Canada.  Existing subscribers to the APP products are encouraged to join the e-HLbc subscription to enjoy the group participation discounts.


This database is made available to eHLbc member institutions through a national site licence negotiated by the Ontario Council of University Libraries (OCUL) on behalf of Consortia Canada.


Updates: 

The American Psychiatric Publishing (APP) Journals and PsychiatryOnline Packages (including DSM-5 and other textbooks) are moving to a new platform on Wednesday October 29, 2014. The new technology partner is Atypon, and the platform is Literatum.  More details are available on the publisher's website.

DSM-5 Library

DSM-5 Library is the most comprehensive, current, and critical resource for clinical practice available to today's mental health clinicians and researchers of all orientations. DSM-5 is used by health professionals, social workers, and forensic and legal specialists to diagnose and classify mental disorders, and is the product of more than 10 years of effort by hundreds of international experts in all aspects of mental health.

The criteria are concise and explicit, intended to facilitate an objective assessment of symptom presentations in a variety of clinical settings- inpatient, outpatient, partial hospital, consultation-liaison, clinical, private practice, and primary care.
