Whatever happened to SAM? Or What’s in a Name?
Are you wondering whatever happened to Scientific American Medicine (SAM)?
In the old days, the Libraries subscribed in print format. Then it moved to online-only access.
A few years ago, SAM changed its name to WebMD Scientific American Medicine. Soon after that, it changed its name again to ACP Medicine Online.
The Evolution : SAM > WebMD SAM > ACP Medicine Online
Through it all, Affinity Library Services has maintained access in one way or another to this valuable resource for high quality, peer-reviewed, current, evidence-based medical information and CMEs.
We currently have access to ACP Medicine Online with IP Authentication.
That means, NO username or password—just make sure you are at an Affinity computer (or using Remote Access) to get there.
Try it now : ACP Medicine Online
Want to find it again later?
Just type “acp” into the search box atop any Affinity Intranet Page. It should appear at the top of the results list.

A Message from Affinity Library Services & The Print Shop
If you are in need of multiple copies or print jobs (more than 50 pages), please use the Affinity Print Shop.
Color MFDs are located in both the MMC and STE Health Science Libraries. They’ve become very popular places – and we are happy to see so many people using them. However, these machines are NOT designed for high volume duplication (no matter what Lanier says).
You’ll agree if you’ve ever :
Smelled an MFD overheat
Cleared multiple paper jams because the MFD is too hot
Gotten streaked pages (again) because it’s too hot
Had to explain to the 4 other people looking for their pages that they have to wait for that BIG job to finish
Waited for the MFD to reset color / toners, etc.
Filled a paper tray 3x in one hour (That’s 3 reams of paper, friends!)
By contrast, The Affinity Print Shop has the appropriate equipment, paper, and supplies for large print and copy jobs. It is also more cost effective for The Print Shop to fill these requests. In the interest of good stewardship, large print jobs should be sent to The Print Shop.
Time is of the essence!
The Affinity Print Shop has a fast turn-around time. You can email files to Print Shop Staff in the morning and potentially have your job delivered by the afternoon. You don’t have to send a paper copy of your original and wait for days for a reply. Mary Tyler and Heather Stenson offer fast and friendly service.
