Health Librarians Add Value
CILIP Scotland and NHS Education for Scotland Knowledge Services are working together on a joint campaign called Health Librarians Add Value. This campaign is designed to showcase the numerous important ways in which health librarians contribute to and support healthcare across Scotland.
As part of this campaign, we are bringing together a bank of case studies demonstrating this and highlighting different projects, services, and current initiatives being carried out by information professionals working in the health and care sector.
You can read all of the case studies that have been submitted so far below.
This campaign began in 2020 and, as such, many of the case studies are related to work done during the COVID-19 pandemic. As always, health librarians have been crucial in ensuring that their healthcare colleagues have access to high-quality information and evidence throughout the pandemic. Their skills and services have been essential during this most challenging of time periods when new information has been emerging and evolving rapidly.
If you are an information professional working in health and have a project or piece of work you would like to highlight to the wider profession and key stakeholders then please share it with us. This may be something you have done in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, a project you were working on prior to lockdown, or even just an everyday part of your role or the library service that is invaluable to your users.
