Our Gabriel Correa Vélez Library supports the academic and research activities carried out at the Hospital through the search, selection, acquisition, organization and dissemination of high quality scientific information. We respond to requests related to logistical resources within 48 hours. In case a request requires more time to be solved, this in no case will exceed 10 working days.
For this purpose, we have access to databases such as ClinicalKEY, and subscriptions to journals such as New England, Journal Medicine and JAMA. relevant to the supervision of students.
