Description of Institution and Library

 

One of ten University of California campuses, the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) is located in Westwood Village, approximately five miles from the Pacific Ocean near Santa Monica.  Comprised of the College of Letters and Science and 11 professional schools, the 419-acre campus features 174 buildings, including the Center for Health Sciences.  UCLA has more than 6,300 faculty and academic staff and approximately 26,000 employees.  Founded in 1919, UCLA offers 118 undergraduate degree programs and 200 graduate programs and has more than 24,800 undergraduates and 10,800 graduate students.  Academic excellence, faculty distinction, and a comprehensive curriculum are hallmarks of UCLA, which is a member of the Association of American Universities.  Among the faculty are five Nobel Laureates, nine National Medal of Science winners, seven MacArthur Grant winners, and 52 Guggenheim Fellows.  UCLA is California’s largest university and is a model for public institutions of higher education.  As the 10th largest employer in the region, UCLA generates almost $9 in economic activity for every $1 state taxpayers invest in UCLA and generates an annual $6 billion economic impact on the greater Los Angeles region.

 

Ranked among the top 10 academic research libraries in North America, the UCLA Library is comprised of 8 major libraries and 13 library wide departments and the Southern Regional Library Facility, the remote storage facility for the southern UC campuses, reporting to the University Librarian.  In addition, there are 12 affiliated libraries and library units located on the campus.  There are approximately 125 librarians on the campus, and the UCLA Library has a staff of approximately 350 and approximately 600 – 700 student employees.  The Library has an organizational structure that includes the use of teams in conjunction with departments and units.  The library collection consists of more than 8 million volumes and more than 78,000 current serial titles and an aggressively expanding electronic resources collection.  The Library’s annual budget is in excess of $33.9 million; more than $10 million supports the acquisition of print and digital material, and the library is part of the California Digital Library.  The UCLA Library is a member of the Association of Research Libraries (ARL), the Coalition of Networked Information (CNI), the Center for Research Libraries (CRL), the Council of Library and Information Resources (CLIR), International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), and the Scholarly Publishing & Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC).

 

The National Network of Libraries of Medicine, Pacific Southwest Region (NN/LM PSR) program is funded through a contract with the National Library of Medicine (NLM) and functions administratively as a division of the Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library.  The National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NN/LM) program is coordinated by NLM and carried out through a nationwide network of health science libraries and information centers.   The mission of the NN/LM is to advance the progress of medicine and improve the public health by: 1) providing all U.S. health professionals with equal access to biomedical information; and 2) improving the public's access to information to enable them to make informed decisions about their health.  The NN/LM Pacific Southwest Region includes Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, and the U.S.-Associated Pacific Basin.

 

The NN/LM PSR staff facilitates resource sharing and cooperative projects among a network of over 600 health sciences libraries and resource centers, including academic medical libraries, hospital libraries, pharmaceutical and other special health sciences libraries; a growing number of public libraries with consumer health collections; and collections of community-based organizations that provide health information.  They provide outreach programs, often in partnership with network libraries and other organizations in the region, to assist health professionals who have no direct affiliation with a health sciences library and consumers who are seeking sources of reliable health information.  PSRML outreach activities include exhibits at conferences, classes in health information access, referrals to network libraries, and demonstrations of NLM databases and resources, including PubMed/MEDLINE and MedlinePlus.
