Anne Ross Library's Latest Acquisition: The DSM-5
The new 5th edition of the
American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5™) is now available on the Reference shelf in the library.
The DSM is used by clinicians and researchers to diagnose and classify mental disorders. This latest edition is 10 years in the making, involving hundreds of international experts working in all aspects of mental health.
"The DSM-5 is the most comprehensive, current, and critical resource for clinical practice available to today's mental health clinicians and researchers of all orientations. The information contained in the manual is also valuable to other physicians and health professionals, including psychologists, counselors, nurses, and occupational and rehabilitation therapists, as well as social workers and forensic and legal specialists."

Pathology Professor Generously Donates to the University's Library
The
Anne Ross Library wishes to sincerely thank
Dr. Robert Fogel , Chair of Pathology, for the generous donation of more than 60 medical reference books. You will notice as you come into the library, we have relocated the
Reference Collection to the shelves next to the
'Course Notes' in order to accommodate this valuable donation. The anatomical models have moved into the old reference shelves.
From all of us at the Library, we wish to say,
"Enjoy your retirement Dr. Fogel!"
You will be sincerely missed by all on campus!
