Together with LAMPHHS, we’re offering an online session all about the MHL!
Melissa Grafe, our immediate past president from the Historical Medical Library of Yale Medical School, Jessica Murphy from the Center for the History of Medicine at the Francis A Countway Library of Medicine, and Hanna Clutterbuck-Cook from the MHL and the Center will be guiding the session.
When: Friday, July 31th at 1 p.m. EST
What: We’ll spend about 30-45 minutes on an introduction to the MHL and strategies for diving into the MHL corpus, showing how to surface materials related to epidemics and diseases as an example (a hot topic for the upcoming fall semester!), and discussing other ways the MHL is promoting discovery of various parts of the collection.
In this Digging Into Digital session, we’ll dive into the rich and freely open collections digitized by the Medical Heritage Library, a non-profit collaborative digitization and discovery organization committed to providing open access resources in the history of healthcare and the health sciences. This session is tailored for library, archive, and museum professionals who provide history of medicine and health research help and classroom teaching.

The session is open to people outside of LAMPHHS, so if you have colleagues who want to join in, they are welcome to do so. We will use the email you share in registration to send you the Zoom link the day before the session.
