Integrated information management and hospital libraries

Integrated information management and hospital libraries

H S Buchanan et al. Bull Med Libr Assoc. 1985 Jan.

Abstract

It is demonstrated that hospitals are information-dependent and that there is need for integration of information generated and gathered through their subsystems. This paper discusses recommendations of the Matheson Report for an integrated information management system which would link these subsystems. The library's statement of mission, means for self-assessment, and analysis of information needs and uses are explored. Future directions with examples of new roles for the library are outlined.
