The library strives to provide a safe and inviting environment for every library visitor. Please help us by refraining from behavior that disrupts others who are using the library.

Behaviors that interfere with the rights of others include, but are not limited to, the following activities:

Notice: Due to a system update, we will not be able to accept Course Reserves requests for Summer 2025.

The Course Reserve system allows for the borrowing and lending of required and requested OSU course materials. Instructors may request their course materials be added to our Reserve collection through our Course Reserve Request Form. The Health Sciences Library Course Reserve collection typically accepts course material for the health science colleges.

Policies govern many aspects of how the Health Sciences Library provides services. All of our policies are reviewed by the Health Sciences Library Executive Team.

We are committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of all library visitor data in compliance with federal and state laws, university policy, and professional standards (e.g., guidelines established by the American Library Association).  

Library Advisory Committee members advise the Library Director on significant matters pertaining to library resources, space and new initiatives. Members offer recommendations regarding library services on behalf of library visitors, and they serve as advocates for the library in presenting major needs to relevant stakeholders.
