Global Literature on Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19)

The World Health Organization (WHO)’s COVID-19 database, Global Literature on Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), which I will refer to here as Global Literature, is one of the best, if not the best, aggregator of research on COVID-19. Some of its advantages include an international focus, results from a large number of sources, and the inclusion of gray literature/preprints from many countries. The database is free to access, and the majority (roughly three-fourths) of its articles can be accessed in full-text for free. Although some aspects of its search process are limited, Global Literature is a valuable resource for librarians to highlight.
