![Abstract](images/abstract.gif) |
Archives and Special Collections is the repository for the archival records of Columbia University's four health sciences schools: the College of Physicians and Surgeons (1767), the School of Nursing (1892), the College of Dental Medicine 1916, (with antecedents dating to the 1850s), and the School of Public Health (1922). Archival records date from the 1780s to the 1980s and are largely from the schools of medicine and dentistry, though all four schools are represented. Special Collections include books, periodicals, and pamphlets in the history of the health sciences from 1476 to the 20th century; personal papers of physicians, scientists, and administrators associated with the Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center; and prints, photographs, and some artifacts. Though the department is not the repository for the archival records of Presbyterian Hospital (est. 1868), it does have a limited amount of both printed and manuscript material relating to Presbyterian and its affiliated institutions. This material largely dates from after the 1911 affiliation of the Hospital and the University to form the Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center. SERVICES: Hours Monday, Wednesday, and Friday 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., and by appointment. Reference by mail, phone, and email. Photocopying at discretion of department Head.
