Health Resources for Patients, Families, and the General Public

OHSU Library Resources

OHSU Library welcomes members of the general public during regular business hours. We are located in the BICC building at the Marquam Hill campus.

If you would like assistance with your medical research, appointments with a librarian are recommended and can be made using one of the methods in the Contact Us! box to the left.

The OHSU Library at the BICC has general public computer stations that allow you to use the Library's medical databases and grants you access to most OHSU Library resources, including full text journal articles.

Printing costs 10 cents a page and can be paid in cash or by Visa or Mastercard.

Information about borrowing OHSU Library materials can be found here.
