    AbstractDespite the rapid expansion of online educational resources for emergency medicine, barriers remain to their effective use by emergency physicians and trainees.

These strategies include 1) cultivating digital mentors, 2) browsing the most popular free open access medical education (FOAM) websites, 3) using critical appraisal tools developed for FOAM, and 4) contributing new online content.
