History of Medicine Reading Room
The History of Medicine Reading Room is open to the public, free of charge, Monday-Friday, 8:30-5:00 (EST), except on Federal holidays. Material is retrieved from the stacks on the hour from 9 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Patrons are asked to register at the reference counter and sign the visitor's book. Papers and notebooks are permitted in the Reading Room. Coats and bags are stored in secure lockers in the cloakroom. We will supply pencils for note-taking, if needed, since pens and highlighters may not be used with collection material. Power points for laptop computers are available at some desks.
For more information about using NLM historical collections, review our FAQs, Contact Us, or Ask a Reference Librarian.
The Library revised its security procedures in April 2004, changing the way researchers access the Library. Browse the new security procedures.
