As of July, 1977, the Library and the Biomedical Commu- JUDY MEHL
nications Department were brought together under the title
of Learning Resources Division. This division is an educa- Librarian
tional resource helping the College achieve its goals and
objectives by serving the needs of students, faculty, alumni,
area practitioners, and related organizations through it-s
services .
The OCPM Library has a collection of over 6,500 volumes
and receives approximately 160 medical and podiatric jour-
nals. Special collections of reprints and papers relating to
podiatry, medicine, and education also are available.
The Biomedical Communications Department com-
plements the didactic and clinical needs of the College by
providing such services as televised teaching, tape dupli-
cation , slide production , photographic work, and production
facilities (videotape, slide tape and audio).
While the two Departments continue to function ind·e-
pendently, that is performing those services and operations
unique to each, they also complement one another in their
programs and provide the College with a complete and in-
depth instructional resource.
