The Southern Regional AHEC library provides services to individuals and organizations by experienced medical librarians. Anyone seeking medical information may use our library. While it primarily supports our staff, preceptors and practicing health professionals in the region… students currently enrolled in health science curricula, may use it as well. Since the collection is highly technical, it is not useful for most high school, middle school and elementary students. Our librarians also offer assistance with the use of free online consumer health resources such as MedlinePlus and NC LIVE.
