Trial to Online DSM-5

The library is running a trial to the online version of the 5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) released by the American Psychiatric Association in May 2013.  It contains the criteria for the diagnosis and classification of mental disorders. The library currently has access to the DSM-5 in paper only.  

To access the trial version, click here.  Or, from the library's homepage, go to Databases A-Z, then click on the tab for Trials.

Trial access to the DSM-5 will run through April 22.  Please provide feedback about this trial to Katie Yelinek (kyelinek@bloomu.edu).
