The Library is pleased to offer two new browser toolbars: a general Library Toolbar and the Clinician's Toolbar.

Get news feeds from UCSF Library News, as well as the University's News and Publications. Easily ask for help with library research and resources from any web page. The Clinician's Toolbar also features instant access to UpToDate and drug information.
