Kellogg Library
The W. K. Kellogg Health Sciences Library holds Dalhousie's biomedical collections. The Kellogg Library provides services to the Faculties of Dentistry, Health Professions and Medicine and serves health professional throughout the Maritime provinces. The print collection and Health Sciences librarian Patrick Ellis can be found in the Chapter House, 5743 University Avenue.
As paper collections are shrinking, the library's collections (Novanet) are becoming increasingly electronic and available 24/7. These collections support and supplement faculty research, curriculum needs and the student laptop/VitalSource initiative.
