The Library has one-year access to the film The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. Based on Rebecca Skloot's book, it tells the story of an African-American woman whose cells were harvested without permission and subsequently used to achieve medical breakthroughs.

The Library has added some new databases to our A-Z Databases List for your research needs! Areas of interest include healthcare, data sets, primary sources, and open access books and articles. (Jul 25)

Library Improvements

We are making a lot of improvements in the library, so you might find that things look a little messy for a while. 

We also continue to perform maintenance on all Library systems. If you encounter a problem with any resources, sent a ticket to library@harrisburgu.libanswers.com.
