The Newfoundland and Labrador Health Bibliography

As of 2015, the NLHB is no longer being updated, but it is still searchable. For further information, please email hslinfo@mun.ca.

The "Newfoundland and Labrador Health Bibliography", referred to as the NLHB, is an online bibliography of journal articles, chapters, books and theses relating to health in Newfoundland and Labrador. The main inclusion criteria are:

The NLHB includes a range of material such as scholarly research, case reports and anecdotal pieces. Most of the items in the NLHB are available through the Health Sciences Library.

The basis for the NLHB was A Bibliography of Health Care in Newfoundland, published by Shelagh Wotherspoon and Isabel Hunter in 1986. While on sabbatical during the 2004-2005 academic year, Shelagh updated the bibliography and converted it into an online database, which meant immediate access for an international audience.

Following Shelagh's retirement, the NLHB became an official project of the Health Sciences Library but has not been updated since 2015. Any NLHB questions or comments can be directed to hslinfo@mun.ca.
