Our 24/7 cancer helpline provides information and answers for people dealing with cancer. We can connect you with trained cancer information specialists who will answer questions about a cancer diagnosis and provide guidance and a compassionate ear.
Our highly trained specialists are available 24/7 via phone and on weekdays can assist through video calls and online chat. We connect patients, caregivers, and family members with essential services and resources at every step of their cancer journey. Ask us how you can get involved and support the fight against cancer. Some of the topics we can assist with include:
The American Cancer Society (ACS) and the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) are collaborating to make it simpler for patients to find authoritative cancer information online. Together, we're creating a single source of credible cancer information.
When cancer treatment is far from home, our Hope Lodge facilities offer a free place to stay and a supportive space to rest. We also provide lodging grants to local healthcare systems partners so they can provide lodging assistance to their patients.
Road to Recovery connects cancer patients in need of transportation to treatment with volunteers to get them there. We also provide transportation grants to local healthcare systems partners to provide transportation assistance to their patients.
You can help reduce your risk of cancer by making healthy choices like eating right, staying active, and not smoking. It's also important to follow recommended screening guidelines, which can help detect certain cancers early.
A cancer diagnosis affects close family and friends too. Find out what to expect if you become a caregiver for a person with cancer, and get tips for making sure that you take care of yourself as well.

IDWeek is the joint annual meeting of the Infectious Diseases Society of America, the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America, the HIV Medicine Association, the Pediatric Infectious Diseases Society and the Society of Infectious Diseases Pharmacists.
An educational program designed for learners to develop skills in building multidisciplinary partnerships that aid in identifying and addressing health inequities as they relate to antimicrobial stewardship.
Published monthly by Cambridge University Press, ICHE publishes original, peer-reviewed scientific articles for professionals in epidemiology or infection prevention and control programs in hospitals and healthcare facilities.
Antimicrobial Stewardship & Healthcare Epidemiology (ASHE) is a fully Gold Open Access journal that publishes original research that contributes to the fields of antimicrobial stewardship and the prevention of healthcare-associated infections.
SHEA Spring will include topics on healthcare epidemiology, antibiotic stewardship, long-term care, research methods, clinical microbiology, patient safety and quality, implementation science, and COVID-19. It also provides a wide range of opportunities for networking with peers and experts in the field.
"Society Online is an ambitious collection of articles, delivering the next generation of careful but eloquent studies of Internet use and culture. Both accessible and varied treatments, rich array of methodological approaches, intriguing data and provocative thought frameworks await the reader who would be curious to see if the internet context is already converging on some stability or still oscillating in search of its impacts and identity."
"This is perhaps one of the most rigorously researched collections about online interactions and culture. The essays, based on a major initiative by the Pew Foundation, integrate data from other projects, such as the General Social Survey... The book is atheoretical, engaging little of technology studies, whether social construction of technology, actor-network theory, or others."

As a nonprofit organization serving more than 40,000 animals each year, we are committed to being there for the pets, wildlife and people who need us. We consistently strive to make our services accessible by charging the lowest possible fees for guests. However, due to rising costs, we have reassessed our fees to ensure we can continue to deliver critical services to our community and provide the very best quality service to the animals and people relying on us. As of Aug. 15, 2023, our dog licensing fees will be as follows:

Residents of Carlsbad, Del Mar, El Cajon, Encinitas, Escondido, La Mesa, Oceanside, Poway, San Diego, San Marcos, Santee, Solana Beach and Vista can purchase a dog license online at DocuPet.com.
For Cities Outside San Diego Humane Society's Jurisdiction
If you reside in Chula Vista, Coronado, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove and National City, please contact with your local jurisdiction for licensing information.
Residents of unincorporated North County and Unincorporated South County must contact the County of San Diego Department of Animal Services for licensing.
License fees are an investment in the health and safety of our pets. These small fees also assist San Diego Humane Society in providing care to stray and homeless animals and further our efforts to eliminate animal cruelty and neglect.
Rabies certifications are needed to maintain records of dogs within jurisdictions and for applications to be sent to owners to license their dog for city compliance. Licensing fees changed as of April 2020, and old forms should not be used. Please use current forms with the correct rates listed below. Your clients can send in the license application form that you give them to get their license by mail, or they may go online to sdhumane.org/license. If you need current rabies forms, please email [email protected].
California Health and Safety Code (121690) requires all dogs to be vaccinated against rabies and to obtain a license. Once you have obtained a valid dog license, the below information will assist in registering a service dog with San Diego Humane Society.
Omega Nu Lambda was conceived to address a common challenge faced by online students: the lack of dialogue and connectivity. As an off-campus learner, you might miss out on traditional campus experiences, clubs, and organizations. ONL aims to change that narrative by fostering a sense of community and providing a platform for networking among members worldwide.
Eligible online undergraduate students who have completed at least 15 credit hours of online coursework at LSU or LSUA with a 3.2 GPA or better will be invited to join the Omega Nu Lambda National Honor Society. Graduate students must have completed at least 15 credit hours of online coursework with a GPA of 3.65 or better. You can learn more on the ONL website.

Record types: Finding aids, or detailed collection guides to manuscript and photography collections; digital images; digitized oral histories
Search and browse everything we have online. While most of our more than 13 million items are not yet digitized, we are adding to our online content every day. To search descriptions of the entire MHS collection, including both online and offline content, use our library catalog, ABIGAIL.
Search 100,000+ images of documents, photographs, and other items. Unlike the item-level database, these digitized records do not have metadata associated with individual items. Instead, there are detailed descriptions at the box, folder, and collection level.
Search the full text of our documentary editions. All editions have individual search tools in addition to this one. Many editions have editorial annotations; the John Quincy Adams Digital Diary also has page images.
Our digital features are sets of digitized items which present a common topic, such as the American Revolution, or highlight a specific collection, such as the papers of Thomas Jefferson. They include online exhibitions, large digitization projects, digital publications, and a few third-party resources.
We usually digitize content based on available funds from grants that have specific goals. Some consequences of this are, for example, larger collections becoming digitized but not transcribed, or smaller, focused sets having more detailed metadata and transcriptions. If you would like to help us in our digitization efforts, we invite you to join a crowd-sourcing project, or donate to the MHS Fund.
The ANS actively promotes the online use of its resources as both open source and open access with appropriate citations. The collections database (MANTIS), library catalog (DONUM), and online archives (ARCHER) have become essential parts of numismatic research, along with major international collaborations such as Online Coins of the Roman Empire (OCRE), Coinage of the Roman Republic Online (CRRO), and PELLA, among others. The ANS also provides web hosting to the Nomisma project, a collaborative effort to provide stable digital representations of numismatic concepts and entities.
