NLM Traveling Exhibits Coming to Region 4

Posted in: All Members, Opportunity to participate


The NLM Traveling Exhibitions present inspiring stories about history, society, and medicine. Topics include history of lead poisoning in America, the yellow fever epidemic in 1793 in Philadelphia, African American surgeons, the history of women physicians, and more. Discover something new about the past!

NLM Traveling Exhibitions help:

  • connect your community to NLM offerings like MedlinePlus and PubMed.
  • publicize your institution through programming and activities.
  • establish community partnerships and share NLM health information resources with partner institutions.
  • foster health literacy in your community.

If you would like to check out an exhibit in person, there are numerous exhibits coming to Region 4 institutions between now and May 2025.
