title: Management of slides by departments of medical illustration and medical libraries in university teaching hospitals.
abstract: The main results of a research study into the management of slide collections in university teaching hospitals are described. The collections of both departments of medical illustration and medical libraries are surveyed and the recommendation is made that increased and more widespread co-operation is desirable between departments of medical illustration, medical libraries and professionally interested individuals to improve the effectiveness of centralized medical slide collections.
