Elsevier OnCampus Ambassador Program connects medical students with Elsevier content; students share tips and tools for surviving and thriving in medical school

Philadelphia, PA, August 6, 2015 – Elsevier, a world-leading provider of scientific, technical and medical information products and services, announces the launch of Elsevier OnCampus, a new medical student ambassador program. Elsevier OnCampus connects medical students across the United States, allowing them to share their experience using Elsevier solutions and their advice for surviving medical school.

“As a trusted source of textbooks, eBooks, and online solutions for medical students, we are excited to work with Elsevier OnCampus Ambassadors to support their medical school careers and provide a platform to share how they use Elsevier’s world-class content,” said Linda Belfus, Senior Vice President of Content, Elsevier Clinical Solutions. “Not only will OnCampus Ambassadors interact with and share insights with students on their campus, they will also have the opportunity to network with professors, other OnCampus Ambassadors and distinguished Elsevier authors.”

OnCampus Ambassadors will earn points for completing activities that get the word out about Elsevier solutions including writing blog posts, posting photos/videos on social media using #ElsOnCampus, handing out Elsevier content on campus, hosting meet ups to discuss medical school survival tips, and more. Points are redeemed for Elsevier print books, eBooks, prizes and exclusive discounts.

All OnCampus Ambassadors will automatically receive an Elsevier Toolkit containing over $600 worth of Elsevier content. Elsevier Toolkits contain books such as Netter’s Atlas of Human Anatomy, Guyton and Hall Textbook of Medical Physiology, access to ClinicalKey, and more. OnCampus Ambassadors will also have the opportunity to be featured in prominent Elsevier blogs, review new products and technologies and build their resume with leadership experience.
