由于图书馆和信息科学课程以及图书馆员继续教育课程的提供存在差距,图书馆学生和早期职业图书馆员可能不知道健康科学图书馆员的机会。需要提供有关健康科学图书馆学基础的介绍性教育服务。还需要解决可能阻碍代表性不足群体成员成为健康科学图书馆员的障碍。本文探讨了在线教育和指导可以解决健康科学图书馆介绍性教育服务差距的可能性。本文描述了在线健康科学图书馆简介课程和指导计划的试点计划的开发,反思了计划参与者的调查结果,并确定了进一步研究和计划开发的领域。本文还讨论了该计划对于解决健康科学图书馆的公平性、多样性和包容性问题可能产生的潜在影响。
Because of gaps in the offerings of Library and Information Science programs and librarian continuing education programs, library students and early-career librarians may not be aware of opportunities in health sciences librarianship. There is a need for introductory educational offerings on the foundations of health sciences librarianship. There is also a need to address barriers that may obstruct members of underrepresented groups from becoming health sciences librarians. The article explores the possibility that online education and mentoring can address gaps in introductory educational offerings in health sciences librarianship. The article describes the development of a pilot program for an online Introduction to Health Sciences Librarianship course and mentoring program, reflects on results from a survey of program participants, and identifies areas for further research and program development. The article also discusses the potential implications the program may have for addressing equity, diversity, and inclusion in health sciences librarianship.
