The program is coordinated by the National Library of Medicine and carried out through a nationwide Network of health science libraries and information centers.1 For the National Network of Libraries of Medicine, MidContinental Region (NN/LM MCR), the mission and organization of the NN/LM constitutes the best strategy to assure that there is no information disparity for health professionals and the public. The quality of health care delivered and of health care decisions made is absolutely dependent on access to quality health information resources and services. It is through the National Network that this access is assured. NN/LM Goals The three goals established by the National Library of Medicine will provide the action plan for the region. In addition, the NN/LM MidContinental Region (MCR) has added a fourth goal to support the assessment and evaluation activities that identify the effectiveness of the NN/LM MCR. The goals for our regional services plan are: • Develop collaborations among Network members and other organizations to improve access to and sharing of biomedical information resources throughout the nation; • Promote awareness of, access to, and use of biomedical information resources for health professionals and the public, with a particular emphasis on contributing to Healthy People 2020 (http://www.healthypeople.gov/HP2020/); • Develop, promote, and improve electronic access to health information by Network members, health professionals, and organizations providing health information to the public; and • Understand how the products and services of the NN/LM and NLM contribute to improved access to health information by health professionals, and the public. 1 Department of Health and Human Services, National Library of Medicine.

    RE-17-19-0032-19 - Simmons University Retooling the Librarian Workforce: Innovative Post-Master’s Certificate Program for Developing Inter- Professional Informationalists (IPI ) Abstract In alignment with IMLS’s strategic goal of Lifelong Learning, this project aims to retool the diverse librarian workforce, develop an innovative educational model, and foster collaboration between libraries and a learning organization. Through a partnership among seven bicoastal academic health sciences libraries (Harvard University, MCPHS University, Tufts University, Boston University, Stanford University, University of California at Los Angeles, University of California at San Francisco) and one LIS Program (Simmons University), this project creates a post-Master’s certificate program in the area of Inter-Professional Informationist (IPI), for the purpose of bridging the gap between traditional and emergent skills in health sciences librarianship and increasing the diversity in the IPI workforce. IPI adopts embedded library services and the informationist approach to enhance biomedical scientific research and practice. Ten librarians in the program will complete seven IPI courses, and project partner institutions will connect them with researchers and clinical leaders who will supervise their capstone experience. This two-year project features planning, student recruitment, a four-semester course offering, followed by evaluation, recommendation, solidification of the IPI framework, and dissemination. This project has three goals: (1) Develop a unique bicoastal partnership among seven academic health sciences libraries across the country and a LIS program; (2) Develop an IPI conceptual framework bridging the gap between traditional and emergent skills in health sciences librarianship through a post- master’s certificate program focusing on retooling librarians in the workforce; (3) Recommend extending the framework to STEM, Social Sciences, and the Arts and Humanities disciplines where there is a similar gap.

  • Agricultural Librarians Becoming Informationists: a Paradigm Shift
    Agricultural Librarians Becoming Informationists: A Paradigm Shift Marianne Stowell Bracke Abstract Librarian liaisons to the agricultural sciences offer many traditional services, such as teaching classes, purchasing materials, managing col- lections, and providing guidance on scholarly communication issues. Data management and data literacy instruction are two emerging service opportunities for agricultural librarians to develop new roles and work with researchers to set standards and meet data manage- ment needs within the disciplinary context. Taking advantage of these opportunities will require new skills, shifts in attitudes, and increased interaction with the students and faculty to understand their needs and provide timely and appropriate services. This paper proposes creating new strategies, expectations, and opportunities for agricultural librarianship by constructing a new model based on the informationist. The informationist, developed in medical librari- anship, offers a model for creating highly engaged liaison services. Within a medical context the informationist is an extension of the traditional model of librarian engagement in which an information professional is embedded within clinical and research settings. Li- brarians can have an impact outside of the traditional library contexts by developing new skills and strategies for librarians working in the agricultural sciences. The informationist model also provides the opportunity to act as a direct collaborator in the creation of new methodologies in the field, such as systematic reviews. Introduction There are extensive discussions of new roles and emerging models for providers of expert information services in research libraries. Changing models must anticipate short-term, rapid changes and also perceive long- LIBRARY TRENDS, Vol. 65, No. 3, 2017 (“Collaboration in Agricultural Librarianship and Information Work,” edited by Sarah C.

  • Establishing a New Clinical Informationist Role in an Academic Health
    Establishing a New Clinical Informationist Role in an Academic Health Sciences Center Alison M. Aldrich Stephanie J. Schulte ABSTRACT. The concept of clinical informationists is not new but has recently been gaining more widespread acceptance across the United States. This article describes the lessons and challenges learned from starting a new clinical informationist service targeted to internal medicine residents in a large academic medical center. Lessons included the need for becoming immersed in evidence-based practice fundamentals; becoming comfortable with the pace, realities, and topics encountered during clinical rounds; and needing organizational commitment to both the evidence-based practice paradigm and clinical informationist role. Challenges included adapting to organizational culture, resident burnout, and perceptions of information overload. KEYWORDS.
