Abstract

Health science libraries are the libraries which are established to provide various specialized services to help and support readers and researchers. Library resources offer comprehensive assistance to healthcare professionals as they grow in their field, aiding in the exploration and enhancement of their understanding of health. This paper aims to examine the resources available for the exploration and advancement of medical knowledge in the health facility libraries of top NIRF institutions within the medical category. During the initial stage, this study examines the development of health information sources and health education tools and resources in AIIMS, New Delhi. Furthermore, steps are being taken to outline future paths to upgrade top medical libraries in India into world-class hubs of knowledge in comparison with the National Library of Medicine, USA.
