The Library’s faculty publications display highlights recent articles by LSUHSC-New Orleans researchers. The September batch of writings has been rotated into the presentation!

This display is being regularly updated with materials that have been gathered into the Faculty Publications Database, which is maintained by the Library as a prominent resource.

The articles on display, rotated out monthly, are in the Library’s Reference area (near the Library elevator) on the third floor of the Resource Center Building.
