Belgrade July 22 – Mr. Miliša Petronijević from the Congress Library in Washington D.C. paid a visit to the Military Medical Academy. Thanks to him, the MMA has excellent 8-year long cooperation with the best-known library in the world. Based on that cooperation, the MMA’s library got several hundreds of the most important monographs covering all the fields of medicine, pharmacy and dental medicine. On the other side, results and publications of our experts found their place in the Washington library.
