Author Biographical Info

The origins of the library date back to 1915, when the Houston Academy of Medicine (HAM) established a small library in downtown Houston to serve the Harris County Medical Society. A permanent home for this new library was built in the early 1950’s, through the efforts of HAM and BCM. By 1975, a new addition to the building had added another 76,000 square feet for the Library’s growing collection. Today the library uses the shorter operating name of The TMC Library, find out more at History of the Library.
