Sacred Medical Campus Library - Nevis, West Indies

Since the 1970's, a huge collection of books on traditional, natural, and indigenous medicines has been collected by the University's founder and hundreds of the books have been archived and digitized on online viewing for members and students. Many of the essential texts are linked in our online courses as Textbooks and Supplements making our courses generally all-inclusive.

All ancient books which have once been called sacred by man, will have their lasting place in the history of mankind, and those who possess the courage, the perseverance, and the self-denial of the true miner, and of the true scholar, will find even in the darkest and dustiest shafts what they are seeking for,--real nuggets of thought, and precious jewels of faith and hope.

We are an ecumenical school, further we do not function to impose nor require ideologies. A university (Latinuniversitas, 'a whole') is an institution of higher (or tertiaryeducation and research which awards academic degrees in various academic disciplines. The word university is derived from the Latin universitas magistrorum et scholarium, which roughly means "community of teachers and scholars"]The modern university system has roots in the European medieval university, which was created in Italy and evolved from cathedral schools for the clergy during the High Middle Ages. An important idea in the definition of a university is the notion of academic freedom. We adhere to that tradition.
