Welcome to the Library Website
Welcome to the virtual entrance of the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center Library and the wealth of digital resources accessible to you through our Website. Don't hesitate to reach out should you want to learn more about this site and content.
Our physical location provides space for consultation with our research informationist (reference) team, as well as areas to collaborate with colleagues or for individual study and reflection.
Our brochure provides an overview of our services and resources. You can review our 2020-2021 Library Report for highlights of some of our key contributions and accomplishments, or check out our Library Strategic Plan 2022 - 2024 to understand our current goals and where we hope to focus our staff resources and expertise.
The work of the MSK Library is directly connected to the institutional mission and describes our purpose for the user communities we serve. The MSK Library ensures easy access to authoritative information resources, provides user-focused services, and advances research and education in support of evidence-based patient care and ongoing learning. We are MSK’s gateway to the world of published research, providing expertise and innovative user-centered approaches that drive organizational productivity and passion in pursuit of the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and cure of cancer and associated diseases.
We are a community resource and an active participant in several national and regional library networks. We are a Resource Library in the National Network of Libraries of Medicine, a program of the National Library of Medicine. This network connects most medical libraries and the healthcare professionals who work at their institutions via the DOCLINE system.
We are committed to outstanding service and to implementing innovations that meet the needs of our users. If you have an interesting story to tell about our library services, please do not hesitate to reach out to me to share your experience with staff, the collections, or a particular service.
We look forward to partnering with you in support of your research activities!
