Biblioteca digital temática de publicações acadêmico-cientificas brasileiras sobre o uso medicinal da Cannabis: uma proposta

The Cannabis sativa plant has been used by humans for millennia. Scientific research has shown positively that cannabinoids can help the treatment of various diseases. This research aims to document the development of the Thematic Digital Library of Brazilian Academic-Scientific Publications on the Medicinal Use of Cannabis. The research can be justified for presenting a topic of interest to researchers due to its adherence to social, educational and health problems. Also because there are scientific-academic publications focused on the subject, as well as tools of Information Science to promote the organization, dissemination and access to such material. It is believed that the organization of this information can collaborate for the scientific dissemination on the subject, as well as to promote the visibility among researchers and the dissemination and access to the information to the interested public.
