For the fifth consecutive time, the National Institutes of Health’s National Library of Medicine has selected the Lamar Soutter Library to serve as a regional medical library for an area that now includes New York as well as New England. The library will receive $8.3 million to increase awareness, facilitate access and provide training on NLM programs and services to double the number of health professionals and consumers served by previous contracts.
In its role as a National Institutes of Health regional medical library, the Lamar Soutter Library held a symposium on graphic medicine, the use of comics to tell personal stories of illness and health.
