the first doctoral degree in physical education was awarded the same year.\u00a0 When the northwest addition to the Main Library was completed in 1964, the Physical Education Library was moved to a new, larger space in Room 146.\u00a0 The name of the library was changed in 1975 to match the name of the college: Applied Life Studies.\u00a0 The name was changed again in 2006 to Applied Health Sciences. The AHS Library\u2019s collection and services were merged with others to form the Social Sciences, Health, and Education Library (SSHEL) in 2012.<\/p>\n<p><b>Please direct all comments or requests for information to Erin Simon, Applied Health Sciences Librarian, at <a title=\"mailto:eesimon@illinois.edu\" href=\"mailto:eesimon@illinois.edu\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-outlook-id=\"6cfab537-9b47-433c-ae98-d2a0a4af4122\">eesimon@illinois.edu<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Find Articles in Databases &amp; Journals Use databases to search multiple online journals at the same time.
