Health sciences libraries in hospitals were examined from longitudinal data collected in 1969, 1973, and 1979, to derive parameters for the universe and for resources, services, and manpower. The surveys show that during this period, the number of hospitals decreased whereas the number of libraries increased. Growth in the number of community hospital libraries was counterbalanced by changes in federal, psychiatric, tuberculosis, and chronic illness hospitals.
利用1969年、1973年和1979年收集的纵向数据，对医院中的健康科学图书馆进行了研究，以得出关于整体情况以及资源、服务和人力方面的参数。调查显示，在此期间，医院数量减少，而图书馆数量增加。社区医院图书馆数量的增长被联邦医院、精神病医院、结核病医院和慢性病医院的变化所抵消。
