Carle Foundation Library was established along with the establishment of Carle Foundation Hospital and Carle Clinic Association in 1931. The library serves the continuing education patient care and research information needs of the employees and staff of Carle Clinic Association and Carle Foundation Hospital. The public may use the collection in Carle Foundation Library with some restrictions. Carle currently subscribes to approximately 250 journals. 95% of the current titles are Abridged Index Medicus journals, the most important medical journals. Carle also has a Consumer Health Information Collection separate from the Medical Library that contains items written for the lay person on a wide variety of health topics. The collection is available for use by staff, patients, family members and the public during normal operating hours. Checkout privileges are limited to Carle staff. The materials available in the Consumer Health Collection are for information purposes only, and not intended to substitute for an informed discussion with a health care provider.
