[Michlib-l] 4 MLA CE Course May 1, 2015

[Figg, Bethany J]

Good Morning!

Heather Holmes will be teaching the class "Research for Hospital Librarians" at WSU's Shiffman Medical Library on Friday, May 1, 2015.  She will also be teaching this class at the MLA conference in Austin, so now is the perfect time to take the class for a much lower rate!

Hospital libraries are being forced to change their focus and end goals to align with the changing face of healthcare. Demonstrating value in hospital libraries now means proving the library saves the institution money rather than more traditional metrics. This course will help hospital librarians gain a better understanding of what types of research they can do to help prove value, whether it be formal research or quality initiatives/applied research. Formal research methods will be covered, including the IRB process, but to a lesser extent than applied research. At the end of this class participants should have a better understanding of how to approach and complete projects, particularly applied research projects, which is generally a more feasible option for hospital librarians.


The MDMLG Professional Development Committee invites you to attend the CE Course "Research for Hospital Librarians" taught by Heather Holmes on Friday, May 1, 2015, from 9am to 1pm in the Shiffman Medical Library.  This course is accredited for 4 MLA CE credits.  We hope you can join us!
