Accessing Library Resources
Library resources are available to all members of the DHLC staff who are registered library patrons. If you have not done so, please contact a member of the Library staff who will provide you with the necessary registration forms.

Library Hours

The Medical Library is in the Elichman Pavilion located on the Center's campus. The hours are:

Monday through Friday- 8:00am to 5:00pm, Saturday, Sunday and Holidays Closed

After closing hours, access is available through our hospital security office (ext 4495). Please have the telephone operator page a security officer if no one is available in the office. The officer will let you in and should be paged again when you are ready to leave the library. The library is not to be left open without notifying security that you are leaving. Access to and departure from the library are so noted in the Security Access Log.

Circulation

All patrons must register with the library in order to borrow materials or use microcomputer resources. Books, bound journals and audiovisuals may be borrowed for two weeks at a time. Renewals for an additional two weeks are permitted if the title is not on the reserve list. All titles are returned to the collection after the second renewal period. Please discuss your needs with a member of the library staff should you require a title beyond the second renewal.

Print reference materials and audiovisual materials are located in locked display cabinets. Print materials are restricted to a one day borrowing period by staff members only. Audiovisuals may be borrowed for up to one week. A staff member will give you acess to these cabinets upon request. Renewals are permitted if the item is not on the reserve list.

Late notices will be sent out for items not returned. Your third notice will be an invoice assuming you wish to retain the item(s) for personal use.
