Medical Heritage Library


Cool.

The Medical Heritage Library, according to their new website, "is a digital curation collaborative among some of the world’s leading medical libraries. The MHL promotes free and open access to quality historical resources in medicine. Our goal is to provide the means by which readers and scholars across a multitude of disciplines can examine the interrelated nature of medicine and society, both to inform contemporary medicine and strengthen understanding of the world in which we live."

Partners?

National Library of Medicine

The Francis A. Countway Library of Medicine

The Cushing/Whitney Medical Library at Yale University

The Augustus C. Long Health Sciences Library at Columbia University

New York Public Library

And, while we're talking about vintage health care, Booktryst revels in the good old (bad) days of medicine, here.
