Welcome to the National Library of Medicine

Welcome to the National Library of Medicine web site. Whether you are a health professional, a scientist, or a member of the public, I hope you will find the information you seek. Our programs range from consumer health information, to medical literature, to genetic data in support of the Human Genome Project. Our collections are the largest in the world, from 11th century manuscripts to today’s electronic journals. We welcome your comments and suggestions on how we can do better. Our customer service representatives are as close as the Contact NLM link.
