Abstract For many librarians, searching the literature, assisting with research projects, and providing publication support are important roles. With those roles comes the arduous task of obtaining needed information in multiple databases. Dimensions attempt to simplify the process by linking needed information into one database. A comprehensive database, Dimensions indexes publications, data sets, grants, patents, clinical trials, and policy documents. Author profiles are also included, enabling one to search by author, institution, or subject. This review examines Dimensions and assesses whether the product would be useful to librarians.

This journal will be an essential resource for academic medical school libraries, hospital libraries, and other health sciences libraries.
