the School of Graduate Studies, the College of Nursing, the College
of Health Related Professions and the University Hospital of Brooklyn
(1950- ) as well as its predecessor institutions: The Long Island College
Hospital (Collegiate Division) (1860-1930) and The Long Island College
of Medicine (1930-1950). The Archives also holds materials which reflect
the history of medicine, medical education and health care in the County
