Cards to use at HAM/TMC

The UH Libraries are pleased to announce that access, including remote access, to the holdings of the Houston Academy of Medicine – Texas Medical Center (HAM-TMC) Library resources is now available to UH (main campus) faculty, researchers, and graduate students. Please note that remote access is not available to staff or undergraduate students.

Eligible individuals must apply in person for a HAM-TMC Library card at the M. D. Anderson Library Service Desk, the Optometry Library, or the Pharmacy Library. Please be prepared with the following:
• a valid Cougar 1Card
• a valid UH e-mail address
Only those in good standing with the UH Libraries will be issued a card. Faculty accounts must be renewed after two years, while all other accounts must be renewed annually.

Once you have received the HAM-TMC card, you will be given instructions on how to register for remote access. Within two (2) working days you will be able to register for remote access on the HAM-TMC Library’s Web site. It is important to note that passwords for remote access are issued to individuals and are not to be shared with others.
