Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discovering what characterizes strong clinical medical librarianship and how those characteristics have been and are supporting clinicians in their delivery of evidence-based medicine can help those in this profession evaluate and strengthen their own programs. Perhaps more importantly, learning about and from leaders in clinical medical librarianship can help not only other librarians but also clinicians and other healthcare professionals strategize to ensure that their programs stay abreast of the rapidly changing healthcare field using methods and approaches that recognize the importance of providing biomedical information and adapting to new technology and research requirements. Beginning with a discussion of the birth of the Clinical Medical Librarian (CML) and continuing with chapters that explore current innovative programs conducted by CMLs, The Clinical Medical Librarians Handbook piques reader’s interest in this exciting professional field through descriptive scenarios. The book moves quickly through the history of librarians accompanying clinicians on medical wards to the realization of librarians partnering with clinicians in the face of a rapidly changing healthcare scene. Success and challenges are discussed by professional CMLs working in urban academic medical centers. The Clinical Medical Librarians Handbook is intended for any library student, practicing librarian or health administrator interested in understanding the variety of roles medical librarians play in the healthcare system of the United States, how medical librarians interact with clinicians and patients, the power of patient-centered care and technology, the importance of information to public health, novel ways to introduce and teach clinical learners to use resources, how clinical medical librarians learn to do the job and tips for managing clinical medical library programs.

Ivy Hendy, an experienced docent, has created a non-technical, easy to read book for the would-be art docent or the tour guide wanting fresh tips. Being an art docent is an exceptional, lifelong pursuit, suitable for young and old. This user-friendly book will clarify and charm. Humorous illustrations and elucidating photos reinforce the absorbing stories and narrative. The book motivates, helps and encourages and along the way there are entertaining, fun-filled disclosures that you will discover about the odd, funny, rousing, bizarre and aggravating details that occur in day-to-day docent touring. There are eight chapters in the book. Each chapter speaks to a central theme that is encountered in both art docent training and in the actual pursuit of giving tours. For example, Docent Details answers the questions: do you need to be an artist and do you need to know anything about art to become a docent in an art museum? Also in the book are explanations and descriptions about the beginnings of art and art institutions, launching a tour, speaking to the public, what is necessary to know, making the case for contemporary art, and building relationships. From the beginning of docent training to becoming a full-fledged tour guide in an art museum, this amusing and practical book will answer questions you never thought to ask.
