Through July and August, the NIH Library will be installing new shelving on the lower level of the Library, as the first phase of a larger renovation project that will bring improvements to comfort and access for library users. As materials are moved they may be difficult to find or access.
NIH Users
If possible please submit requests for books and journal articles to us electronically through the NIH Library website, and we will respond, generally, within two to three business days. For immediate needs, please let us know at the Information Desk and we will retrieve the materials for you.
Other Department of Health and Human Services Agency Users
