Pacific College of Oriental Medicine is a private institution offering Master of Science programs in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (acupuncture and Chinese herbalism) and Bachelor programs in Oriental Bodywork and Western Massage.

The funds so generously granted were used to purchase educational materials for the ever expanding Pacific College Library. Purchased were a laptop and a projector, which have benefited the Library in many ways.  The library staff is now better able to conduct presentations on acupuncture and massage research, and on-line searching of medical databases and web sites for students and faculty. In addition, the laptop serves as a training tool for teaching health information and computer literacy, and as an extra computer for the Library.

In the future, PCOM will purchase additional needed literary materials relating to Chinese acupuncture, Herbology, Oriental medicine, Tui Na, and other health related subjects.

The grant from the National Networks of Libraries is proven to be a valuable resource for the students and faculty of Pacific College of Oriental Medicine. It has funded library research courses and expanded the availability of computer access.

With great appreciation and gratitude, PCOM would like to thank the National Network of Libraries of Medicine for their services and donation.
