the staff at the McGoogan Library of Medicine.<\/p>\n<p>Texts such as the &#8220;Centennial Trilogy of the University of Nebraska College of Medicine&#8221; and books featuring the history of Clarkson Hospital are now available at Digital Commons@UNMC.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/digitalcommons.unmc.edu\/hist_books\/\">View the digitized history books.<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>The most recent book to be added to the repository is the College of Nursing&#8217;s 75th anniversary book.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is especially timely, as 2017 marks the centennial of the opening of University Hospital and the founding and first class of the College of Nursing, then called the School of Nursing,&#8221; said John Schleicher, associate professor and special collections librarian at the McGoogan Library.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Not only are we preserving the history of UNMC and Nebraska Medicine, but we are making it more accessible through digitization of materials,&#8221; Schleicher said.<\/p>\n<p>Schleicher credited long-time UNMC faculty member and administrator Robert Wigton, M.D., for his support of the program.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dr. Wigton support has helped the library develop programs to make available online the extensive and growing archive of historical data, photos and stories about UNMC faculty and personnel,&#8221; Schleicher said. &#8220;The growing online resource provides an important link to alumni, faculty, scholars and the general public with information about UNMC&#8217;s
