The Strauss Library is proud to present its latest exhibit, Honoring Our Veterans: A Postal History of Fitzsimons Army Hospital.
The exhibit pays tribute to the veterans who received care at Fitzsimons Army Hospital. It showcases letters and postcards sent by soldiers during various wars, offering insight into their personal experiences and the hospital's role in their recovery.
The Strauss Health Sciences Library is pleased to announce that affiliates* of CU Anschutz Medical Campus can publish open access in select Institute of Physics (IOP) journals with no Article Processing Cost (APC) fees. To find eligible journals, simply use the IOP ChronosHub Journal Finder.
Strauss Library traces its origin to 1924 when the medical school was transferred from CU Boulder to the medical center location in Denver. At that time the library contained about 5,000 volumes and was housed in a single room. Fast forward one hundred years and the Strauss Library now has an incredibly large collection and is housed in a 113,000 square foot building.
Strauss Health Sciences Library is celebrating 100 years of service this year! It all started in 1924 when Mrs. Ella Strong Denison donated funds for “The Charles Denison, M.D., Memorial Library”, the rest, as they say, is history.
To facilitate a conducive environment for academic success, Strauss Library provides a study room reservation system that is easy to use. Students can reserve a study room with just a few clicks. To make a reservation, simply visit the library's website and click on Reserve a Room. With flexible booking options available and over 40 rooms on the system, you can tailor your reservation to suit your schedule.
As part of our commitment to wellness and providing a rejuvenating environment, the library provides nap pods providing patrons a unique space to recharge and unwind. Key features of the nap pod include comfort and ergonomic design and privacy and tranquility. There are two nap pods, and both are located on the second floor in the Study Zone, room 2406K, across from the study zone’s kitchen.
We offer diverse options for well-being while you work in Strauss Library. Try one of our walk or bike stations instead of a study room. There are three walk stations on the first floor of the library, one in the Study Zone on the second floor, and two walk stations on the third floor. There is a bike station on each floor of the library. The bike station on the second floor is next to a pull-up station if you really want to test yourself.
Strauss Library has updated furniture in a variety of rooms over the past year. Last year, the Tower and the Video Conference rooms on the third floor received new conference tables and chairs. Our Tower Room (3100) has comfortable executive-type chairs and flexible sectional tables that allow for diverse configurations.
