New Services to Child HealthIn October 2005, the Health Sciences Library at the University of Missouri-Columbia introduced a clinical librarian service for interns, residents, and faculty of the Department of Child Health. The clinical librarian attends Morning Report, an educational conference for interns and residents.
The librarian listens for gaps in knowledge during the conference; searches for answers to questions both expressed and implied; and reports findings to the group. The librarian also works with individual interns and residents on finding answers to clinical questions and teaches sessions on evidence-based practice.
Keys to Success
Build on prior relationships
Find faculty champions
Say yes to “non-librarian” activities—librarian is involved in research project on impact of Morning Report to resident education
Evolution of Service
Residents requested that librarian be present at Morning Report three days a week instead of initial once a week
One session formalized into EBM Morning Report
Increased contact with interns and residents outside of Morning Report
Acknowledgements
Thank you to all the interns, residents, and attendings for their support of this service!
