PDA Resources
PDAs (personal digital
assistants) have become a staple in all areas of medicine. Preston
Medical Library offers PDA support: personalized classes by appointment,
syncing, and this page of useful PDA links.
About syncing in the
library...
PDAs function best when
syncing to only one computer. However, we provide software
downloading on an as-needed basis. Bring your cradle/cable
and PDA to the library and we can help you get started.
Want to know more about
PDA basics? Take a look at our PDA
Tutorial.
