FAQs

Where is the DHI Library?

The Diversity Health Institute Library collection is located in two partner hospital libraries within the Sydney West Area Health Service.  The mental health material remains in the Mental Health Library at Cumberland Hospital, while a broader multicultural health collection is held at the Auburn Hospital Library.

Who can borrow from the DHI Library?

Membership of the Library is free to staff of the DHI and Sydney West Area Health Service.

What if I am not a staff member of the Diversity Health Institute or Sydney West Area Health Service, can I still use the Library?

The Library participates in resource-sharing with other Australian Libraries, so other individuals, students and organisations are encouraged to approach their own Library or public library to access the DHI collection via interlibrary loan.  

What is held in the DHI Library? 

All resources held in the Library are on the online catalogue available through the above catalogue link . This catalogue is shared with other Libraries in the Sydney West Area Health Service and Children’s Hospital at Westmead, so not all items on the catalogue are necessarily located within the Diversity Health Institute or Transcultural Mental Health Centre collections.
