About Children's Mercy Library Services

Library Services is dedicated to supporting patient care and the academic and research activities at Children’s Mercy. Librarians are available to help with Library resource instruction, literature searches, clinical rounding support, and assistance with research projects. We provide access to a curated collection of online and print materials, including point of care tools, clinical databases, and leadership, diversity, and innovation resources. If we don’t have access to something specific, we'll try to get it from another library through our Interlibrary Loan (ILL) service. Library Services also administers the institutional repository, SHARE@Children's Mercy and assists with promoting research and scholarly works created at Children's Mercy.

Location: The Library is located on the ground floor of the West Tower near the Orange Tiger Elevators on the Adele Hall campus. All CM staff and faculty have badge access to the Library 24/7. The Library's digital content is accessible to all CM personnel using their Scope login and password.
