New Titles in the MHL

The MHL is pleased to announce that the first titles from our new National Endowment for the Humanities-funded digitization grant are going live in our Internet Archive collection.

If you glance through the list in the “This Just In” section of our Internet Archive page, you’ll see titles like the Thomsonian Botanic Watchman, the Confederate States Medical and Surgical Journal, the Photographic Review of Medicine and Surgery, the Aesculapian Register, and the New England Botanic Medical and Surgical Journal.

The current titles are the result of the Francis A. Countway Library of Medicine‘s first month of digitization but check back frequently for more titles from the Countway, the Yale Cushing/Whitney Medical Library, the Columbia Health Sciences Library, and the College of Physicians of Philadelphia.

As always, for more from the Medical Heritage Library, please visit our full collection!
