Lane Medical Library has begun a trial of JAMAevidence, an instructional resource from the AMA that provides tools and guides for learning about and teaching the essentials of evidence-based medicine.JAMAevidence provides guides to the systematic consideration of validity, importance, and applicability of potential treatments and their outcomes. It consists of three textbooks, education guides, and learning tools for critical appraisal.

- The Rational Clinical Examination: Evidence-Based Clinical Diagnosis. Compiles, summarizes and expands upon evidence originally published in JAMA. This compilation provides optimized access to the essentials of evidence-based clinical diagnosis literature.
- Care at the Close of Life: Evidence and Experience. Focuses on practical, real-world issues in palliative care, including communication issues, disease management and clinician self-care.
Additional resources in JAMAevidence:
