The North Carolina History of Health Digital Collection, part of the Medical Heritage Library, is a digital curation collaborative among some of the world’s leading medical libraries that promotes free and open access to quality historical resources in medicine. Its goal is to provide the means by which readers and scholars across a multitude of disciplines can examine the interrelated nature of medicine and society, both to inform contemporary medicine and strengthen understanding of the world in which we live. The MHL’s growing collection of digitized medical rare books, pamphlets, journals, and films number in the tens of thousands, with representative works from each of the past six centuries, all of which are available through the Internet Archive.
MedHum.org is an independent nonprofit founded by former editors of NYU’s Literature, Arts and Medicine Database. It preserves and expands LitMed’s original annotations while publishing new reviews, interviews, and essays, serving as a comprehensive resource for the medical humanities community.
