The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Database of Systematic Reviews and Implementation Reports provides access to systematic review protocols and systematic reviews of healthcare research following the JBI methodology.

Exhibit: The Great Mississippi Flood of 1927

The new exhibit in the Jefferson Caffery Reading Room examines the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927, which inundated 26,000 square miles in seven states, forced nearly 1 million people from their homes and caused more than $400 million in losses. In Louisiana alone, 10,000 square miles in 20 parishes were flooded. The extreme amount of damage was in part due to the levees-only system that had been instituted in the late 1800s.
