Health Libraries Ottawa - Putting Users First!

I am please to announce that effective immediately, staff in good standing with the library at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre will be able to borrow books in person from the other medical libraries located at hospitals in Ottawa, and at the Libraries of the University of Ottawa.



This service does not replace the current interlibrary loan service, that is still available to all staff at the ROHCG.

You must obtain a library card first, so if you think this may be of interest to you, please drop by the ROMHC Medical Library, room 2100 for more details.

This is a collaborative 1 year pilot project from a group called Health Libraries Ottawa / Bibliothèques de la santé D'Ottawa. The member libraries include:

-Ottawa Hospital - General and Civic campus libraries
-Bruyère Continuing Care
-Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario, Conway Medical Library
-Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre, Medical Library
-Queensway-Carleton Hospital, Medical Library
-University of Ottawa, Heart Institute, Berkman Library
-University of Ottawa - Library Network
