Class Experience Level
Beginner
This 3-week, 4 credit-hour self-paced online class is available to you 24/7 and is designed for library staff who support, or want to support, nursing and allied health professionals with resources from the National Library of Medicine (NLM).
The class provides an introduction to the professions of nursing and allied health, and explores NLM databases used by health professionals such as PubMed, LactMed, MedlinePlus and DailyMed. The class concludes with learners developing their own plan on how to use this information in their work.
Expect to spend about 4 hours learning in this class.
Objectives:
- Connect NLM resources to user needs when asked a reference question from a member of the nursing or allied health population.
- List ways librarians can support the information needs of their own nursing / allied health audience, when asked to reflect upon how they can improve library services to Nursing and Allied Health in their particular work environment.
