New Faculty Orientation PowerPoint from Feb 28 2023
Request a Library Instruction Session
Faculty members with a research component in their classes may schedule a session for their students led by Education Coordinator, April Pace. Course-related library instruction is one of the most effective ways to teach students the research process. Instructional sessions are even more effective if done in conjunction with a specific assignment so that students can practice the skills and strategies.
Clinical Medical Librarians
The Clinical Medical Librarian (CML) Program extends library and information services into the clinical environment. Since 1996, the Brickell Medical Sciences Library has offered trained information specialists as part of the healthcare team at the Children’s Hospital of the King’s Daughters (CHKD) to provide case-specific information in support of patient care.
EVMS Clinical Medical Librarians (CML) provide curriculum support, educational opportunities, and research guidance. Their expertise extends to Institutional Review Board (IRB) assistance & Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) support.
You can find out more about EVMS CML professionals at Ask a Librarian.
