A comprehensive information service for an academic radiology department.

In order to simplify access to the medical radiology literature, a clinical information service was created within an academic radiology department. The program, administered by a clinical medical librarian, provides literature search services and current literature selection for in-house faculty and staff members to answer questions related to patient management, research, publication, and conference preparation. Additional services are provided through selective bibliographies and "current awareness" searches, both updated frequently, and a monthly journal table-of-contents packet in the areas of radiologic diagnosis/nuclear medicine and radiation therapy. The clinical medical librarian also administers a departmental learning resource center and teaching files. Development of a subscription information service for practicing radiologists is discussed.

Anxiety and confidence in using a library by college freshmen and seniors.

The first study using a measure of library anxiety showed that 180 college freshmen have significantly higher scores than college seniors. A second study found that among freshmen students, those with high scores on Library Anxiety reported less confidence in using the library than those with low scores, even though the students were equal on several indices of academic ability and performance.

Learning resources in a medical school--the evolution of an innovation.

Resources to support self-study have been provided in the Medical School of the University of Aberdeen for the past 15 years. The initial impetus to this provision was given when a project--the Postgraduate Teaching Project--was set up in 1974 to develop programmes for medical postgraduates studying the Membership Examinations of the Royal College of Physicians. The success of the project resulted in a widening of its remit to undergraduate medical education. This led, in turn, to the formation, in 1978, of the Medical Learning Resources Group and the construction of a designated Learning Resources Area in the Medical School Library. Use of resources is continuously monitored and the resources themselves are regularly revised and updated.

Developing information-seeking skills in occupational therapy students.

This paper discusses the importance of teaching occupational therapy students methods for finding information in libraries. It details the efforts at Ohio State University to supply this instruction and demonstrates the positive results of library user education as seen by the instructors of occupational therapy students. This partnership between librarians and classroom instructors can easily be adapted to any health sciences education program.
