Since its founding in 1923, the health sciences center library has supported clinical education at Emory through our mission to optimize research, education, and patient care processes with reliable and sustainable access to data and information.
This exhibit was organized by Sharon Leslie, Matt Miller and John Nemeth. It was on display June 2023 - July 2024.

As part of our 100-year celebration, these books highlight the history of health sciences libraries, the profession of health librarianship, and the history and impact of medical education at Emory University. Also included are selected works by eminent Emory faculty, from scholarly books on clinical education to creative endeavors.
