Beschreibung:

The official seal of the National Library of Medicine. According to this page, the seal was designed in 1986 by the Army Institute of Heraldry. It shows the familiar staff and serpent adapted from the staff of Aesculapius, the mythological god of medicine; an open book with three clasps which represent knowledge in three primary areas&emdash;medical research, education and practice; electronic flashes, which suggest NLM's leadership in applying new technology to communications; and laurel branches symbolizing the Library's preeminence as a medical resource available to institutions and individuals.
