DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The NN/LM Pacific Southwest Region consists of a vast and diverse area of roughly 48 million people. The RML, based at the UCLA Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library in Los Angeles, supports a variety of libraries and health information centers in Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, and the U. S. Territories in the Pacific. The Region stretches across six time zones, as well as the International Date Line. The geographic diversity presents a study in contrasts and great differences in information needs, from the urban hubs of Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Phoenix, and Las Vegas, to the remote island communities of the Pacific. The Region covers 11% of the total U.S. land area, and includes nearly 16% of the total U. S. population. In addition to the great geographical distances, the Region is culturally, ethnically, and linguistically very diverse. Over 200 languages and dialects are known to be spoken and read in California, making it one of the most linguistically diverse areas in the world. Arizona is home to many Native Americans and Hispanic Americans, Nevada has many frontier counties, and Hawaii has the largest population of Native Hawaiians. Another challenge is the changing landscape of health sciences libraries, particularly hospital libraries, which are undergoing a continuing trend of downsizing and closure, primarily due to institutional economic pressures and retirements of senior librarians. Despite these challenges, we have developed a program to publicize and promote the resources and services of the National Library of Medicine to as many audiences as possible. One of our key strategies is carefully planning the timing of webinars and other online meetings for the convenience of all parts of the Region. We also make extensive use of social media channels, two blogs, and an electronic announcement list to promote the word about new or revised NLM resources, upcoming events, technology tips, training information, and funding opportunities that may be of interest to our constituents. To support hospital librarians, we have extensively supported advocacy efforts by sponsoring workshops and providing professional development funding directed at hospital librarians wishing to enhance their skills. The Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library proposes to continue providing Regional Medical Library services to the states of Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, and U.S. Territories in the Pacific Basin for the 2016-2021 Cooperative Agreement. We recognize that technologies and health information priorities will change during the course of the agreement, and we stand ready to monitor and evaluate the communication tools used by our primary audiences, and to adapt our methods accordingly. We believe that the program put forward in this proposal to serve the NN/LM Pacific Southwest Region provides a balanced, logical, and flexible approach to improving access to health information and to promoting the systems and services of the National Library of Medicine.

描述(申请人提供)：NN/LM太平洋西南地区由一个广袤多样的地区组成，大约有4800万人。RML总部设在洛杉矶的加州大学洛杉矶分校路易丝·M·达林生物医学图书馆，支持亚利桑那州、加利福尼亚州、夏威夷、内华达州和太平洋地区的各种图书馆和卫生信息中心。该地区跨越六个时区，以及国际日期变更线。从洛杉矶、旧金山、圣地亚哥、凤凰城和拉斯维加斯的城市中心到太平洋的偏远岛屿社区，地理多样性呈现出信息需求的对比和巨大差异。该地区覆盖了美国陆地总面积的11%，包括美国总人口的近16%。 除了遥远的地理距离外，该地区在文化、种族和语言方面也非常多样化。加州已知有200多种语言和方言，使其成为世界上语言最多样化的地区之一。亚利桑那州是 内华达州有许多土著美国人和西班牙裔美国人，有许多边境县，夏威夷的土著夏威夷人人口最多。另一个挑战是卫生科学图书馆，特别是医院图书馆的格局正在发生变化，主要是由于机构经济压力和高级图书馆管理员退休，这些图书馆正在经历缩编和关闭的持续趋势。 尽管面临这些挑战，我们还是制定了一项计划，向尽可能多的受众宣传和推广国家医学图书馆的资源和服务。我们的主要战略之一是认真规划网络研讨会和其他在线会议的时间安排，以方便该区域所有地区。我们还广泛利用社交媒体渠道、两个博客和电子公告列表来宣传我们选民可能感兴趣的新的或修订的NLM资源、即将举行的活动、技术提示、培训信息和资助机会。为了支持医院图书馆员，我们通过举办工作坊和为希望提高其技能的医院图书馆员提供专业发展资金，广泛支持宣传工作。 根据2016-2021年合作协议，路易丝·M·达林生物医学图书馆提议继续向亚利桑那州、加利福尼亚州、夏威夷、内华达州和太平洋盆地的美国领土提供区域医学图书馆服务。我们认识到，在协议过程中，技术和卫生信息优先事项将发生变化，我们随时准备监测和评估我们的主要受众使用的传播工具，并相应调整我们的方法。我们相信，本提案中提出的为NN/LM太平洋西南地区提供服务的计划提供了一种平衡、合理和灵活的方法，以改善获得健康信息的机会，并促进国家医学图书馆的系统和服务。
