Abstract

Stress in medical students is not unheard of, nor is it unexpected. Medical students have rigorous schedules and must pass a series of examinations, placing enormous pressure on them to succeed. As medical students move into their careers, this same stress can follow them and impact not only their health but also that of their patients. This stress can lead to depression and anxiety and eventually can cause burnout. Libraries are already well aware of the stress students feel, especially around exam time. Therapy dogs visiting the libraries are a common sight, and more libraries are beginning to offer some form of art therapy for students. Medical libraries can further support students’ wellness needs by promoting mobile wellness resources.
