Description
How to you go from zero to (librarian) hero by developing a medical library in less than six months? How far out of your comfort zone do you have to be in order to go from being mainly an instruction/reference librarian to making systems decisions, building up an ILS, and wrestling with interlibrary loan? Attend this session to learn the strategies, skills, and coping mechanisms used to build up a medical library for Idaho’s first medical school.
