UCSF Library and Center for Knowledge Managementlaboratory of ideas
Among the Library's resources are papers and records relating to the AIDS epidemic and the birth of the biotechnology industry. The Library also houses a unique Asian art collection, including a set of approximately 400 Japanese woodblock prints (Ukiyo-e) from the 17th through the early 20th centuries. This is the largest set of Japanese woodblock prints on the subject of health and medicine in the United States. UCSF's Tobacco Control Archives and Legacy Tobacco Documents Library constitute the largest public digital collection maintained by any library in the world. In addition, faculty and staff at the Center for Instructional Technology are working to develop new technologies to teach the health sciences. To preserve the integrity of these impressive collections, the
Library has established fundraising priorities to direct gifts to
its most urgent needs as well as an Honor with Books Program to
provide supplemental resources for special projects. Additional information on these opportunities is available in the links below: Fundraising Priorities Related Links: |
