The AUHS Library provides access to a robust collection, physical space for studying and research, reference, instruction, and various services to support AUHS faculty, students, and staff. The collection contains books, journals, audio/video resources, models, etc. which are available for circulation, or reference books may be checked out in the library.

The 2,027 square foot library space provides a quiet and comfortable reading area. Wireless internet access is available throughout the library.
A primary objective of the library is to support the university’s curriculum and the user needs of AUHS students, faculty, and staff with reference and instruction. The librarian conducts reference and individual instruction in- person and virtually through email, phone, or content management Moodle software. The library assistant is also trained to provide reference help to AUHS users. The librarian provides course-specific instruction in various classes throughout the quarter in classes such as Nursing Research, Nursing Communication, and general education classes.
