Still University/KCOM the Museum was founded in 1978, other family members, D.O.s and Museum supporters have donated many additional artifacts that reflect the ongoing history of the osteopathic profession. The research collections of the International Center for Osteopathic History also include many former holdings of the KCOM Library's special collections, for which the museum assumed responsibility in 1997. Researchers may work on-site in the reading room or write to the Museum with specific reference queries. (Due to limited staff, the Museum is unable to undertake extensive research projects on behalf of researchers). Researchers planning to use the reading room must call ahead of time for an appointment. SERVICES: The Museum also offers a variety of image reproduction services, including photocopies, photographic reproductions, and scanned images. The staff works closely with researchers to meet the specific format needs of different projects. Contact the Curator (museum@atsu.edu) for information and usages/research fees.
