Editor's Notes
- Supporting the Health Researcher of the Future In addition to supporting the key roles of basic education and continuing professional development health libraries are increasingly occupying an essential position in providing support to those involved in health research. Whereas previously such a role involved stocking a few key journals in a discipline and providing access to a much wider selection of peer reviewed articles through well-utilised interlibrary loan networks the emphasis has now shifted to a service “beyond the library walls”. Indeed the challenge faced by many libraries is that of warding off increasing invisibility as researchers become accustomed to accessing resources from their own desktops. Faced with such a challenge what can a health library that aims to meet the needs of its research community seek to do? One possibility is to reengineer the library's presence through a range of tailored services and virtual resources. This presentation will describe how a health library can utilise free or low cost technologies to deliver a suite of services that are based around the needs of particular programmes, projects or even individual researchers. It will describe the activities of the School of Health and Related Research at the University of Sheffield in moving forward its research support services through the use of wikis, RSS feeds, blogs and portals. The team will share lessons learnt and pointers for any other libraries seeking to extend its outreach to health researchers beyond the four walls of the library.
