The American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) has named its library after radiologic technologist educator Philip Ballinger, PhD.
The Philip W. Ballinger Museum Library is part of the ASRT Museum and Archives, which is scheduled to open in June 2015 at the ASRT office in Albuquerque, NM. The reference library features radiology-related literature, textbooks, and other historical information about the profession.
Ballinger has served on numerous ASRT committees and task forces during his 50-year career as a radiologic technologist and educator. He made a six-figure donation to the ASRT Foundation in connection with the group's campaign to develop scholarships, grants, and other programs for RT educators, students, and clinical personnel.
