The Harrell Health Sciences Library, in Partnership with the Global Health Center, has packed and shipped 17,235 books and bound journals to the Mount Crest Medical School in Ghana helping them create a core collection for their medical school library. The volumes sent to Mount Crest were removed from the Harrell HSL collection in anticipation of the upcoming renovation. The materials removed were either duplicated elsewhere at Penn State or are available electronically.
The Harrell HSL has also moved approximately 6505 unique bound journals to the offsite storage facility located at University Park. This material will be available on an on-demand basis and requests for articles can be filled digitally through the Illiad request system.
