For my academic library, I visited the Edward E. Brickell Medical Sciences library. https:\/\/www.evms.edu\/library\/<\/a> This facility caters to medical students and faculty from the Eastern Virginia Medical School and is accessed by use of their EVMS id card. The public can access to the library is available, but anyone not affiliated with the medical school must be buzzed in by a security guard, provide a photo id, and is issued a visitor’s pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Space <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The library is located on the EVMS\/CHKD\/Sentara Norfolk General Hospital campus. The building is expansive as it encompasses four floors, but parking and handicap access are readily accessible. There is a large circulation desk on the first floor, and library aides, as well as a degreed librarian are always on staff during regular business hours (8:00 a.m to 5:00 p.m.). Each floor has multiple study areas for students and books and materials for reference. There is a limited space for the public wherein they can conduct medical research (the computers have limited access) only; however, the librarians can help patrons with their searches. There is a large computer lab for student and faculty use. Study rooms\/meeting rooms are for student use but can only be reserved by faculty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
