摘要：The library of Washington University School of Medicine consists of a collection of approximately 73,000 books and journals. It serves the students and faculty of the School of Medicine and staffs of the four affiliated hospitals. As the needs of research workers, clinical and teaching staff as well as students, must be met by the library, a collection as complete as possible is maintained. There is no other large library in this immediate vicinity, so in order to give efficient service, this library must be as self-sufficient as practicable.
