St. Luke’s Hospital Library Advocacy

Abstract

The project will focus on the information needs of physicians, researchers, nurses, nurse educators, nursing students and other clinical personnel such as nutritionists, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, etc. at Saint Luke’s Health System.

The method of inquiry will be surveys (print, electronic, and telephone) and focus groups of key user groups. In the initial phase of the project we anticipate that the survey will garner information about the information needs and habits of our current and potential users. The survey will raise awareness about the library throughout the health system.
