The Health Library & Resource Center is dedicated to helping patients, families and the community find the resources and information they need to make informed decisions about their health.
You can use the services at the Health Library & Resource Center, located on the main floor of the hospital, over the phone or online. If you visit or call, you will be assisted by the same professional research librarians who support the information needs of physicians and nurses at the hospital.
Our Librarians are available to guide you through the search process and assist you in getting started on the Internet.
