Library News and Announcements

Check out our FY2014 Annual Report!

These days academic health sciences libraries provide incredibly much more than books. 



Spring Library Bytes

Three bytes of library news you can use!


734 new journal titles are now available via our library online, all at no additional cost to the Rush University Library!

What does this mean?
The full text of 734 more journals is immediately downloadable.

How is this possible?
Grant money from CARLI and the state of Illinois-

The Consortium of Academic and Research Libraries in Illinois (CARLI) serves 96% of Illinois higher education students, faculty, and staff at 140 member institutions through the sharing of collections, expertise, and programs. CARLI libraries work together to maximize access to materials as subscription prices continue to rise while most library budgets do otherwise.

The expanding number of current electronic journal titles Rush University Library provides access to has grown to a total of 8285.

Two EBSCOhost databases bring the new content to the library website:
        Academic Search Complete delivers 411 of the new titles. View the list here.
        CINAHL Complete provides 323 of the new titles. View the list here.
