The Library's goal is to provide knowledge-based information resources and specialized services to the faculty, staff and students of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and to further the institution’s integrated programs in patient care, research, education and prevention.

A landmark facility at the top of the T. Boone Pickens Academic Tower, the Research Medical Library is central to the research, education, and publishing activities that help make MD Anderson the world-leading comprehensive cancer center for which it is known.

Library staff members are active partners in assisting thousands of faculty members, students, residents and fellows as they conduct research, pursue answers and collaborate in Making Cancer History ^®.
