Health sciences librarians may find it difficult to meet demands for in-person or online synchronous library orientations for various reasons, including short-staffing of librarians, expansion of online programs, and temporary campus closures caused by emergencies, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The authors discuss the development, implementation, and assessment of an asynchronous online orientation tutorial created for use across various health sciences degree, certificate, and training programs. The tutorial can either replace or supplement synchronous orientations, and the original tutorial can be copied and customized for specific programs.

As virtual and augmented reality technologies continue to advance, a new concept has risen above the rest that aims to advance the virtual experience to create a complex, interactive and interconnected world - known as the metaverse. Offering a near limitless potential, the metaverse would provide new 3-D environments for people to communicate, shop, learn, work, and do anything that would normally be done on the internet. This column will introduce the metaverse, provide current examples of development, and consider a few takeaways for medical librarians.

Abstract The Harriet F. Ginsburg Health Sciences Library at the University of Central Florida College of Medicine collaborated with the college’s Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion to enhance its existing diversity programming, created to foster a sense of community throughout the college. Through this partnership, a library-driven idea for an occasional diversity-themed lunch and learn session gained valuable institutional support and transformed into a larger event series. A second related project emerged with a goal of creating a diversity corner for the college. These collaborative efforts have helped the library further its mission to be an inclusive entity within the college and have afforded the library greater programming reach.
中佛罗里达大学医学院的Harriet F. Ginsburg健康科学图书馆与学院的多样性、公平和包容办公室合作，加强其现有的多样性项目，旨在培养整个学院的社区意识。通过这种合作关系，图书馆推动的偶尔以多样性为主题的午餐和学习会议的想法获得了宝贵的机构支持，并转变为更大的活动系列。第二个相关项目的目标是为学院创造一个多元化的角落。这些合作努力帮助图书馆进一步履行其使命，成为学院内的一个包容性实体，并为图书馆提供了更大的规划范围。

Abstract The profound transformation of medical libraries over the last twenty years reflects the advancements in medical education and health care delivery, increased expectations of users, and accelerated evolution of technology. The Harvey Cushing/John Hay Whitney Medical Library (CWML) used this opportunity to rethink how staffing could be redeployed to accommodate these new developments. After assessing processes, workflows, and individual responsibilities, library administration devised a novel team approach that would allow clerical & technical (C&T) staff to work across departmental lines to provide a broader variety of in-depth and frontline services. This paper will share how the C&T staff at the CWML developed a broader skill set, while providing library services to users in the rapidly changing field of medical education and health care services.

Abstract The Health Evidence database is a collection of over 7,000 systematic reviews from multiple databases relating to the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of public health interventions. Standardized criteria are utilized by the Health Evidence research team to assess and evaluate each systematic review included in the database, and every review is assigned a quality rating. By providing users with evidence that has already been evaluated, Health Evidence can save researchers and public health officials valuable time and resources when implementing public health measures.

Abstract Cyberattacks on healthcare organizations increased dramatically in 2020 and 2021. The University of Vermont Medical Center suffered an attack in October 2020, during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The disruption to hospital computer systems had wide-ranging impacts, including loss of online access to the medical library for nearly three months. Library staff worked to reduce impacts and increase access for hospital employees until full access was restored. This case study offers lessons learned and resources for health sciences libraries planning for a potential cyberattack.

Abstract The COVID-19 lockdown led to immediate changes in how Virginia Commonwealth University’s (VCU) Health Sciences Library (HSL) would support faculty and students through the means of online learning objects (OLOs). Each Research and Education (RED) librarian is responsible for responding to the educational needs of a specific health sciences school or college as well as those of the VCU Health System. A rapid increase in the OLO creation required a mechanism to curate these objects, make them available to all liaisons, and standardize workflows. The act of curating and creating standardized workflows would allow for easier management and updating of content, the ability to share and cross-pollinate content between liaisons, and the prevention of duplicated content by liaisons, thus lessening the workload. Support from key stakeholders, including RED administrators, the Online Learning Librarian (OLL), and the Multimedia Teaching and Learning Librarian (MTLL), enabled a team of RED librarians (who formed an Online Learning Team (OLT)) to standardize workflows and upload them to the department’s intranet for future reference.

Abstract This article provides a detailed description of a professional development initiative taking place in a fully online modality. The project sought to share asynchronous learning objects and support a community of practice around online instructional design. Beyond the practical and theoretical underpinnings of the initiative, the strategies employed to develop and deliver the project are explained. Additionally, detailed analysis of participation and lessons learned are presented that may be applied to relevant online professional development initiatives in other academic library settings.

Abstract The creation of the current awareness service, Hot Topics, provides opportunities for research engagement while preventing duplicate literature requests and information silos across three campuses. The service provides additional opportunities for the librarians to promote and enhance library resources and services, support evidence-based practice, as well as participate in research projects and studies. Additionally, the service continues the librarians’ support of both the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Magnet and Joint Commission reaccreditation efforts.
