Background. Clinical librarians have specialized search skills to search medical databases to provide clinicians with medical research information needed for evidence-based clinical decision making. However, the importance of cooperation between librarians and healthcare teams does not seem to be well-recognized by clinicians. Objectives. The present study aimed to shed light on the importance of the cooperation between medical librarians and healthcare teams by probing clinicians' viewpoints and their familiarity with librarians’ service. Methods. The population comprised 890 clinical residents at teaching hospitals of the Iran University of Medical Sciences in 2016-2017. A questionnaire survey was carried out with 260 respondents. Results. A majority of the clinical residents did not use services provided by clinical librarians. However, some used the following services: changing treatment behavior based on evidence-based information (3.4%), obtaining evidence-based information (5.0%), accessing clinical guidelines (12.7%), and getting familiar with recent scientific discoveries (6.7%). The residents approved of the presence of librarians who have most of the professional skills necessary for cooperation. Contributions. The presence of clinical librarians with appropriate skills in the healthcare team can help resolve some problems clinical residents face while searching.

Background. Collaborative relationships support the progress of scientific research by providing a collaborator access to resources, skills, information, and technologies. Studies have highlighted the importance of collaborative relationships among scientists. However, less attention has been paid to the characteristics of the relationships. Objectives. This study identified two key concepts, intellectual and social, as a theoretical approach to investigate collaborative relationships among scientists. Methods. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 27 Taiwanese fishery scientists at the Taiwan Fisheries Research Institute, the Academia Sinica, the National Taiwan University, the National Taiwan Ocean University, and the National Museum of Marine Biology & Aquarium. Results. The results reveal that intellectual relationships among fishery scientists involve solving research puzzles collaboratively, giving informal comments on colleagues’ work, and seeking professional recognition. Fishery scientists shape social relationships through academic activities such as collaborating with thesis supervisors as co-authors, selecting research partners according to their professional ability, and contributing to a local or global fish database for building individual professional identity. The fishery scientists considered coauthorship as a core requirement to maintain collaborative relationships. Support from thesis supervisors is important for facilitating collaborative relationships. This support affects the selection of known people as research partners, instead of selecting partners from different countries.

Background. Ground experiences of the researchers indicate substantial concern about the side-effects of the AstraZeneca vaccine in some individuals who lined up to get vaccinated. The Philippine Department of Health, Food and Drug Administration temporarily suspended the administration of the AstraZeneca vaccine to persons below 60 years old on April 8, 2021, due to reports of "rare cases of blood clots with low platelets detected in some individuals inoculated with the vaccine." The authors hypothesize that such encountered information affected the behavior of the vaccine-eligible population, leading to further information gathering, sense-making, and possibly, vaccine hesitancy.Objectives. The researchers sought to determine: (1) how the respondents in this study obtained information regarding the AstraZeneca vaccine, (2) what specific information gaps the respondents sought to make sense of, and (3) how the encountered information affected their willingness to take the COVID-19 vaccine. Methods. A qualitative study was conducted with twenty-one respondents using a grounded theory framework, through a survey with open-ended questions, and follow-up interviews.Results. The study found that "vaccine hesitancy" is not a general phenomenon to be tackled by one approach, but a multifactorial and graded response to encountered information. The strength of response to the encountered information was influenced by its origin, content, and the personal beliefs of the person receiving the information, and vaccine hesitancy may not necessarily translate to vaccine refusal.Contributions. A theory of how encountered information affects vaccine hesitancy was constructed, which can be applied to public health/health information literacy campaigns on social media, television, and other information dissemination platforms.
