BIOETHICSLINE use by medical students: curriculum-integrated instruction and collection development implications.

BIOETHICSLINE uselogs were analyzed during months when second-year medical students were engaged in ethics coursework that included curriculum-integrated bibliographic instruction. Uselog data showed that peak activity occurred while students were preparing a required paper. Further uselog analysis indicated that students applied database features such as controlled vocabulary, the "explode" command, and a combination of multiple search concepts. In addition, the study examined journal use and interlibrary loan activity for a correlation with online search activity. Higher bioethics journal use and interlibrary loan statistics coincided with peak BIOETHICSLINE activity periods. Citation analysis of student bibliographies reflected the interdisciplinary nature of BIOETHICSLINE and the need for ethics, legal, and clinical information sources in a bioethics collection. This study suggests that the integration of bibliographic instruction and the coordination of collection development with students' curricular needs lead to increased and more competent use of information resources.
