<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">With a recently released re-design, Health and Wellness Resource Center moves to the same platform as Gale’s other popular digital resources, like Academic OneFile and Gale Virtual Reference Library, and now has the
tools and features that customers expect from Gale databases, including a mobile-responsive design, Google/Microsoft integration, citation tools, Readspeaker, language translation, and more.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">The update also includes a new topic browse experience for the most popular and highly-searched health and wellness topics, featuring portal topic pages that organize results from different content types on one page,
similar to Gale’s In Context product line.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">While the look is new, HWRC delivers the same comprehensive, up-to-date content that customers have trusted for years. Now users can more easily search and work with HWRC’s broad collection of full-text reference
sources, including respected Gale medical encyclopedias; full-text articles from health-related journals, magazines, and newspapers; images; streaming video; and podcasts. All content from the alternative health module was already fully integrated into HWRC,
so with this update, we’ve dropped the reference to the module from the title, and the product is now known simply as Health & Wellness Resource Center.

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">The new homepage features four major topic groupings: Diseases and Conditions; Drugs; Diagnostics and Tests; and Therapies, Treatments, and Surgeries. The new release includes 50 updated
<i>Gale Encyclopedia of Medicine</i> entries on popular topics. <o:p></o:p></p>
