      One strength of this collection is that it spans Dr. Deuschle’s entire career, with some documentation of his Kentucky years, as well as his travels abroad to study and advise on community needs. Naturally, there is also extensive documentation on the Mount Sinai Department of Community Medicine (DCM) but it is spread out into many files and more difficult to piece together. The newsletters and annual reports provide wonderful insights into the goals and efforts of the Department over time. The best way to track the work of particular divisions or areas is to search under the names of the individuals involved. Also, please note that the Archives has a separate series of records for the Division of Occupational and Environmental Medicine.

      From its inception, the Division of Occupational and Environmental Medicine has concentrated on research, as well as providing patient care. The Division’s research has been funded through grants from private and federal sources, as well as by labor unions, which funded projects investigating the health of their workers. Many of the publications here are a result of those grants and contracts. The Library Items series consists primarily of reports created by Division staff on a variety of topics. These include annual reports of grant projects, reports on topics, draft papers, and presentations. These items were given a colored paper cover and were placed in the Division’s library for shared usage.
