For Community Special Services for Patient Families Families of patients at Primary Children's are encouraged to use the Medical Library. The library staff will find information on requested topics. This usually involves finding appropriate sections in textbooks, performing literature searches to find journal articles, and searching the Internet. A file cabinet is filled with brochures, pamphlets, and articles on frequently-requested topics. Families may check out one item at a time.
Registration is required.

Photocopier Families may use the copier without charge for anything related to their child's care. For other copying, cost is 5 cents per page. Children's Books Parents and children may borrow these for use in the hospital.
