The Hahnemann Library now has a collection of leisure DVDs available for borrowing by Drexel patrons. The basic or starter collection is in place, and new titles will be added as they arrive. DVDs circulate for five days, cannot be renewed, must be returned to the Hahnemann Library, and are limited to two per person. Please come take a look- they are located in the leisure seating area on the 2nd floor, near the collection of leisure books.

Did you know that animation videos are available in the online version of Goodman & Gilman’s The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics?  Videos are highlighted on the contents listing for the book.

A new one was recently added to those already online:  Sinus Node Electrophysiology This animation focuses on the ion channels and transporters that are the primary targets of neurotransmitters of the autonomic nervous system that affect heart rate and drugs used to treat arrhythmias.
