Our Collection

The Shuji Goto Library was developed to implement, enrich and support the educational programs of the college. The library collection, which contains over 5,700 volumes of books and 66 journals, is one of the most extensive collections of its kind in the United States. It not only includes works on Traditional Chinese Medicine, but also on Western medicine, Asian philosophy and culture, various alternative healing modalities, general sciences, and other subject areas relevant to the needs and interests of our students. In addition to publications in English, the library contains a sizable collection of Chinese works and a smaller Japanese collection. Audiotapes, videotapes, CD’s and slides on acupuncture and herbal medicine are available, as is a computer lab.

 

“ACTCM teaches you to take things in small, digestible bits – whether it is classwork, food, or life in general. I have learned to slow down, to become more meticulous in my methodologies, and more astute in my discernment. I come home every day feeling inspired because the things I am learning are immediately useful and applicable to my everyday life. I can now interpret my own health in a way that makes sense, rather than having my body’s functioning processes remain a mystery.”
