An examination of nigerian medical library service and problems.

The history of medical librarianship in Nigeria dates back only two decades. The number of medical libraries can be counted on fingertips in the twinkling of an eye, and those that do exist have sprung up with the medical faculties of Nigerian universities. There is a general tendency to run the medical library as an integral part of the main university library, but where two campuses exist expediency dictates a separate library to serve the medical teachers and researchers. The acquisition problem of the new Nigerian medical libraries in a medical world centuries old is tremendous. Tight budgetary control, nonavailability of the desired literature, and transportation delays are the greatest odds the medical librarian has to battle against.

The experience of a department of medicine with a clinical medical library service.

Five years of experience using the services of a full-time clinical medical librarian (CML) by the Department of Medicine at the Hospital of the Medical College of Pennsylvania have been reviewed. Over the five years there was a marked increase in queries from faculty and house staff members with an accompanying decrease in CML-initiated questions, while requests by students and others remained constant. The largest category of queries was patient-related. There were increases in the use of the CML for patient-related queries, for research, and for oral presentations. The number of requests obtained on rounds or in conferences decreased, while the number obtained by phone, in the library, or elsewhere increased. Requests for computer searches remained constant.
