The National Library of Medicine (NLM) is in the process of cataloging a new PosterVirus collection to make it accessible for use by researchers. These posters will join thousands of others in NLM’s archival collections covering a diverse range of public health topics including family planning, sex education, substance abuse, drunk driving, and the dangers of smoking.
For more information about NLM’s public health posters, see the curated Profiles in Science collection Visual Culture and Health, which is based on the 2003 NLM-sponsored symposium of the same name.

Ejournal Virtual Bookshelf Using BrowZine
BrowZine is an app for Apple or Android smart phones and devices that helps you flip through the scholarly electronic journals available through UT Southwestern Medical Center.
Browzine has sorted UT Southwestern's ejournals into broad subjects and then into narrower disciplines. You can save and organize your most-used ejournals on virtual bookshelves saved to your account. The result is an easy and familiar way to browse through, read, and monitor scholarly ejournals across disciplines.
For more information or to get started, please visit the BrowZine page in the Library's LibKey Guide.
UTSW Special Collections and Archives Oral History Project
The University Archives has begun an oral history project with alumni of the university and current faculty members.
The goal of this project is to record the stories of the people who chose to attend the university and those who chose to work for it. Each individual has a unique story based upon their experiences, and through these interviews the viewer learns how UTSW played a part in their own stories.
If you would like to share your experiences and stories or would like to learn more, contact the University Archives at archives@utsouthwestern.edu.
Collecting UTSW’s historical records, in digital or physical format, ensures that they can be preserved and made accessible to researchers in the future. If you or your department has items that might be related to the history of UTSW, please reach out to archives@utsouthwestern.edu.
