is to help medical professionals, students
and patients become independent problem solvers who have state-of-the-art
information tools and know how to use them to address health
care challenges. |
The Lifespan Libraries form an integrated information management
center. The libraries hold more than 40,000 serial volumes, subscribe
to approximately 700 journals, and house more than 8,000 books,
specializing in the clinical medical sciences and nursing. Among
the libraries' strengths are electronic literature searching, online
cataloging, collection management, library instruction and research
