Our collection of print books (excluding rare books) is available to Ochsner staff, students, leaders, and non-clinical employees. Print books can be borrowed for six (6) weeks at a time.

Print books may be checked-out either in person during our regular staff hours at our facility on the Jefferson Highway campus or we can inter-office mail to your location.

To open a Medical Library print book account, go to our Print Holdings Catalog and register your account.

Begin by entering your Ochsner username in the User ID/Barcode box. Your Ochsner username will be your first initial last name or begin with v- or be your employee number.

Then you will be prompted to verify your name and email address and may continue in setting-up your account. Once finalized, use your print book account to reserve and renew books and keep track of your checkouts.

If your name is not found, contact the Medical Library and our staff will help get your account set-up.
