In view of the demand of the vast number of Chinese medicine science and technology workers for massive information retrieval, the Center has provided a large number of retrieval databases, including Chinese periodicals database, Chinese medicine literature database, medical and health achievements database, Chinese biomedical literature database, MEDLINE database, American patent database, Chinese patent medicine commodity database, Chinese medicine enterprise database, and China medical journal literature database, which has included the literature reports of hundreds of domestic medical journals in recent 20 years. In the past three years, the retrieval center has completed 926 novelty retrieval services for scientific research topics and 153 general topic consulting services.
It is the purpose and starting point of library work to meet the needs of readers in all directions to the maximum extent. In recent years, we have taken effective measures to change the old service concept and traditional mode, change passive service into active service, and diversify service content and service forms. In addition to setting up readers' mailboxes on the library homepage and the lobby on the first floor to introduce new books, the opening hours are extended and open lending is implemented. One of the closing ways of traditional libraries is the closing of borrowing. Students can't directly and intuitively face the literature and materials, can't freely choose books and materials, and artificially isolate readers from the literature and materials, which greatly limits people's enthusiasm and affects the effective utilization of literature resources. Now we have adopted a comprehensive and open reading and borrowing, and achieved the goal of "one card" to visit the whole library, and all three stacks are open. Readers can choose their own books from the stacks and choose whatever books they like, and the utilization rate of literature has doubled.

In 2009, our school plans to build a new building of 22,000 square meters. The layout and use of new buildings will break through traditional concepts and thinking, emancipate the mind and strive for innovation. It embodies the idea of "people-oriented" and the service concept of "reader-centered", completely changes the traditional lending service mode in the past, and builds it into a networked, open and modern library integrating collection, lending and reading, which fully embodies the service tenet of "readers first, service and education".
