Dr. Hill et Hn. Stickell, BRANDON HILL SELECTED LIST OF BOOKS AND JOURNALS IN ALLIED HEALTH/, Bulletin of the Medical Library Association, 86(4), 1998, pp. 447-463
This list of 410 books and 78 journals is intended as a selection guid
e to be used in a library supporting allied health educational program
s or allied health personnel in either an academic or health care sett
ing. Because of the impossibility of covering the large number and wid
e variety of allied health professions and occupations, the recommende
d publications are focused primarily on the educational programs liste
d and described in the AMA's Health Professions Education Directory, 1
997-1998, plus physical therapist and medical secretary. Some programs
do not have their own specific literatures. Books and journals are ca
tegorized by subject; the book list is followed by an author/editor in
dex, and the subject list of journals by an alphabetical title listing
. Items suggested for initial purchase (160 books and 31 journals) are
indicated by asterisks. To purchase the entire collection of books an
d journals (1998 subscriptions) would require an expenditure of about
$29,180. The cost of only the asterisked items totals $11,390.
