Dear All,
Some of you may already have seen this week's (17.03.2005) NEJM with two
articles on medical libraries: '2005 - The Future of Medical Libraries'
and 'Quiet in the Library'. The latter starts with the paragraph
'The library at my medical school has never been a better place to work.
The journals are shelved in perfect order. The copying machines have no
lines. Quiet, comfortable places in which to read are plentiful. The
reason: hardly anymore goes there anymore.'
Good thing we still have nurses, student nurses and medical students
messing the place up.
I look forward to reading the rest of the 'Quiet' article and the main
'2005' one.
Cheers,
Reinhard
