 Changing the Face of Medicine:
Celebrating America's Women Physicians
The ALA Public Programs Office, in collaboration with the National Library of Medicine, Bethesda, Maryland, announces a tour to 61 libraries of a new traveling exhibition celebrating the lives and achievements of women in medicine since they first gained admission to American medical schools 150 years ago.
The 61 libraries selected for the tour will host the exhibition for a six-week period. Participating libraries are expected to present at least two programs for library patrons and community members that features a lecture/discussion by a scholar on exhibition themes. All showings of the exhibition will be free and open to the public.
The traveling exhibition has been made possible by the National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health Office of Research on Women's Health, with additional support provided by the American Medical Women's Association.
