History of Medicine | |
[NOTE: This material is adapted from NIH Publication No. 86-261, a special color pamphlet issued in 1986 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the establishment of the National Library of Medicine. The presentation attempts to follow the original as closely as possible within the limits imposed by hypertext markup language (html). Due to the passage of time, certain of the facts and figures cited in the publication are now out of date, although it is still a helpful introduction to the history and services of the Library. Where necessary to avoid confusion or to point to more current information, current editorial comments not in the original pamphlet will appear within square brackets. A few directional phrases referring to placement of figures in the original have been deleted.] |
