Searching the literature is easier than ever with the advent of CD-ROM. Cost effective and simple to use, this technology is being used for clinical patient management as well as health care administration. For the materiel manager, literature searches can provide additional information, and access to research and other data to assist in making objective, informed, defensible purchasing decisions.
