A new exhibit in the Bernard Becker Medical Library
celebrates the centennial anniversary of Washington University School of
Medicine’s three original campus buildings on what was once considered
the “new” Forest Park campus.
Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis has opened a new Center for History of Medicine to stimulate student and faculty studies of the ways progress takes place in medicine and science. The center is on the sixth floor of Washington University’s Bernard Becker Medical Library.
The WUSTL Faculty Senate adopted an Open Access Resolution that encourages faculty members to make their scholarly and creative works freely available online. The resolution also includes a recommendation for University Libraries and the Bernard Becker Medical Library to develop the capacity to capture faculty scholarship, make it publicly accessible and preserve it over time.
With the vast amount of health information available online, it can be difficult to know what resources are credible. School of Medicine librarians have created a way to change that.
