2. What is the #MLASR
Project?
"The fact that 140 MLA leaders and 108
researchers ... participated in this Delphi study
suggests that the profession values the place of
research in advancing their professional practices.
The top-ranked questions ... will guide decision
makers and researchers in defining which areas of
systematic inquiry deserve the highest priority."

4. What is Team
#6 doing?
“The explosion of information, expansion
of technology (especially mobile
technology), and complexity of the health
care environment present medical
librarians and medical libraries
opportunities and challenges. To live up to
the opportunities and challenges, what
kinds of skill sets or information structure
are medical librarians or medical libraries
required to have or acquire so as to be
strong partners or contributors of
continuing effectiveness to the changing
environment?”
ie. Emerging Technologies relevant to
medical librarians

10. Roles for #MedLibs
“Medical librarians are geniuses of honing the question & finding info that matches the precise question”
“Evaluate information delivering technologies and recommend usage to clinicians”
“Need guidance in the growing tech wilderness. Choosing appropriate solutions based on available
evidence.”
“I Love that Medical Libraries are the Free Agents of Knowledge. I don't ever worry this might be a bias.”
“Any good leader values people who can help acquire, organize, and disseminate meaning and knowledge.”
“At minimum the link between librarians and faculty has to be strengthened- they should be active
faculty, all prof”
“As they are trusted resources, role should be both curator of available options, & possibly benchmarking
best practices”
Libraries also facilitate long-term memory, this helps spot bad ideas being recycled.”
“How can med library evidence-based info be translated into usable app for docs/nurses?”
“Librarians are like the ultimate data curators...or they could be”
“would love to see public libraries display/teach health apps - not province of only med libs”

11. ID Tech, Step 4: Survey
What does “emerging
technologies mean to
you?”
List as many “emerging
technologies” as you
can.
etc.

12. Survey Highlights
Brief:
6 months (April - September 2013)
45 respondents
340 individual technology suggestions
“We need our own skills to have a massive overhaul.”
“Make them cheaper to implement!”
“But I want to see a librarian know how to translate that
knowledge to his/her users using different tech means.”
“If we are going to be taken seriously by the healthcare
practitioners we serve, we have to take a leap forward in time.”
