Periodicals: a great source of up-to-date information

In addition to books, movies, and music, the Library has magazines.  Some are part of the reference collection, while others (at the Branches and in Central's café) can be checked out.  The Science and Technology Room at the Central Library houses health information, so that is where you will find the health-related magazines.
















And not just magazines; because health information is constantly changing (and hopefully improving), some of the books are also periodically published, whereas others have new editions at less predictable intervals.  For example, the Physician's Desk Reference has a new edition every year, whereas the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders is revised as needed.

Here is a list of the health-related magazines available for perusal.  Stay tuned for reviews of these periodicals.
