PHOTOCOPYING JOURNAL ARTICLES
 
 
    Typically, the first step in any research project is a comprehensive literature review.  Meridian researchers make extensive use of the medical literature in the design, implementation, and reporting of the diverse health research projects reported in this newsletter.

    Although we are able to obtain many articles from the Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS) library in Norfolk, Virginia, certain types of journals are often unavailable (especially chiropractic, osteopathic, and naturopathic).  EVMS is also a relatively new school, so articles published before 1970 are especially difficult to obtain.

    We need help from volunteers who may have access to medical journal articles and are willing to photocopy them for us.  If you live near a major medical school or other institution (such as the National Institutes of Health) that maintains a medical library, please consider helping us.  Here is how we envision the process working:
 
1.  Meridian Institute provides a list of articles that are needed.  The list is posted on the Meridian  website (http://www.meridianinstitute.com) or emailed directly to persons who have expressed an interest in helping.

2.  Volunteers contact Meridian Institute to confirm that they are willing to copy specific articles.

3.  Within a few days, volunteers FAX or mail the photocopies to Meridian Institute.

4.  Meridian Institute will reimburse volunteers for the copying cost (usually 5 - 10 cents per page) as needed.

If you are interested in volunteering in this capacity, please contact Meridian Institute.
