VERDICT

Should I use Home - Library Homepage - LibGuides at Albert Einstein College of Medicine?

Created during consulting project - library.einsteinmed.edu

Skip. This is the D. Samuel Gottesman Library homepage at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, not a purchasable product, and the evidence is thin so confidence is low. Einstein affiliates can use the site as-is; software buyers should look elsewhere.

Confidence

Low. Based on 3 distinct public sources; all repeat the same homepage text.
