Dear all,
Clinical Librarians support evidence based practice by taking
information services out into the clinical setting. They join
multidisciplinary health care teams and provide highly specific, quality
filtered, patient-centred information at the point of clinical need.

developing a clinical librarian service or working as a clinical
