A New Look for Circulating Now

You may have noticed…Circulating Now has an exciting new look!

In the almost four years since we began, we’ve been thrilled by the success of this blog as demonstrated by the many thoughtful, inquisitive, and positive comments from you, our readers. As stewards of the National Library of Medicine’s historical collections it is our continuous pleasure—and our ongoing responsibility—to keep you informed about the rich and diverse material held here in the public trust. We hope that you are, like us, continually amazed and inspired by the stories in the collections, revealed by the voices and perspectives of our many authors, and the continuing relevance of these stories to the human condition, current events, and daily life.

We’ve come a long way and we’re taking the next step with a new design based on feedback we have received. Be assured, all of the content, features, and function you’ve come to expect remain the same. This redesign makes a few changes intended to improve your reading experience including:

Cleaner menu and search
Improved navigation
Larger more readable font

We plan to be “circulating” the collections to the world in this way for years to come, encouraging new audiences to discover them for the first time, inspiring our longtime readers to return for more, and, always, opening new windows onto the past, present, and future of disease and health. We hope you like the new design and look forward to hearing what you think.

A fond farewell
