COVID-19 Resources: Getting Started

This guide is meant to help people who are doing research on COVID-19. It is not meant to be an exhaustive list of resources.

Introduction

This guide is meant to help people doing research on COVID-19, including first-year Design Thinking and Communication (DTC) students. It is not meant to be an exhaustive list of resources.

For more information, you can refer to the Galter Health Sciences Library COVID-19 research guide. 

News Sources

The news surrounding COVID-19 is rapidly evolving. We have access to a number of major newspapers, including the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Chicago Tribune:

Science and Medicine Databases

If you're looking for scholarly literature on COVID-19, try looking in one of these science databases. Note that you might need to use multiple terms: people refer to the disease as COVID-19, coronavirus, and SARS-CoV-2. To capture all of these terms at once, search for COVID-19 OR coronavirus OR SARS-CoV-2. 

Also, some publishers have made COVID-19 related content freely available. Feel free to check out these sources as well.
