Bringing a virtual library to a small group classroom.

A small group case discussion class would seem to be the ideal setting for a virtual library. Two courses at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine were observed. One hour of observation was of groups with no computer available, one hour of groups with a computer available "incidentally", and two hours of groups with computer integrated case material. Across all groups, at least one student was using a reference source (paper or computer) 55% of the time. In a room with no computer, paper references were used 59% of the time. In a room with a computer, references were used 53% of the time (18% computer only, 13% paper only, 22% both). While the amount of data is insufficient for detecting statistically significant difference, this study does provide important baseline data not previously available concerning reference use behavior for electronic and paper sources.

Construction of a virtual EPR and automated contextual linkage to multiple sources of support information on the Oxford Clinical Intranet.

We have used internet-standard tools to provide access for clinicians to the components of the electronic patient record held on multiple remote disparate systems. Through the same interface we have provided access to multiple knowledgebases, some written locally and others published elsewhere. We have developed linkage between these two types of information which removes the need for the user to drill down into each knowledgebase to search for relevant information. This approach may help in the implementation of evidence-based practice. The major problems appear to be semantic rather than technological. The intranet was developed at low cost and is now in routine use. This approach appears to be transferable across systems and organisations.

Developing a healthcare law library.

Legal materials are expensive, bulky, and extremely time sensitive. Selecting the appropriate means of ensuring easy access to easily-retrievable, timely legal materials is of extreme importance to any lawyer. The author gives an overview of the various means of retrieving necessary research, including the strengths and weaknesses of each of the various options.
