The John S. McKee, Jr., MD, Memorial Library is a library utilized by staff, affiliating students, community members, members of Northwest Area Health Education Center and other allied state AHEC’s. This library contains journal holdings, books, videos, reading and study areas, and Internet-based indexes, databases, a reference collection, and old hospital archival holdings. Through the hospital’s membership in the Northwest AHEC Library Information Network, this library provides journal tables of contents, use of member libraries, reprints of articles, and database searches. Membership also allows Internet access to Wake Forest University School of Medicine Library which permits access to MD Consult, Stat Ref!, OVID databases (i.e. Medline, CINAHL), as well as a selection of full-text journals and textbooks. A certified librarian trained in the use of library materials, library organization, and library management, manages the library. Members of the public occasionally seek the help of the librarian by appointment in researching the archives for a past relative who was a patient here.
