In 2014 the UK Libraries Special Collections  Research Center received Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) funding to process "Action in Appalachia: Revealing Public Health, Housing, and Community Development Records in the UK Libraries Special Collections Research Center." This processing project is now well underway and the first collection, records of Eastern Kentucky Health Services, Inc., is newly housed, arranged, and described. This collection provides unique documentation for researchers of public health efforts in rural Kentucky during the 1970s and 1980s.

The Eastern Kentucky Health Services, Inc. records’ finding aid is now available on ExploreUK.
