Save the date for the EBSCOhost Idea Exchange, an open forum for questions, solutions, and all things new-UI-related on Nov. 19, 12-1:30pm Central! Invite is making the rounds on the usual channels, so keep an eye out (or DM for an ics). Sponsored by the MLA UX Caucus but all are welcome! #medlibs

"I'm not on that committee" is a longstanding #medlibs joke but preferable than termination & 2 consultants when it comes to advisory feedback about MEDLINE. More about that & a Sept 25th update about a European alternative PubMed project. eagledawg.blogspot.com/2025/09/medl...

You don't say? #medlibs

Any #medlibs (or others) have info on transcare.ucsf.edu/guidelines going offline? Hoping it's a technical issue, but given the times I'm wary.

Only found out about this today (we use it for DOCLINE delivery): "The NNLM will end support for delivery.nnlm.gov on Friday, December 19th 2025. The document delivery site will no longer be available after that date, and it will not be replaced with a similar service." #MedLibs

Students: want to meet and discuss a Systematic review- and our professor wants the search by next week. Me:lol

Possibly concerning considering the current state www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbul...

In our last editorial we imagined how bad academic publishing might get, and hopefully how it might come out better www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

The 1st edition of the NAHRS Nursing Essential Resources List (NNERL) has been released. This resource list was designed to locate nursing information and for collection development for information professionals.  ➡️ Learn more: https://bit.ly/4g4UXtM #medlibs #datalibs #nursing #healthcare

Not sure if I like the changes to this page www.nlm.nih.gov/portals/publ...

Email from ASIS&T #medlibs #speclibs #asis&t 21 August 2025 – The Special Libraries Association (SLA) and the Association for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T) today announced that their members have cleared the way for the organizations to merge.

An important read www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202... #meded

#medlibs I don't think that anyone will be surprised at this

“The Public Health Map collects, synthesizes, and visualizes timely data on federal changes and their localized effects on U.S. health systems.” #medlibs theimpactproject.org/public-healt...

Potentially catastrophic behind-the-scenes news about the Network of the National Library of Medicine (www.nnlm.gov) shared with me today. While some NNLM host institutions were able to float the offices while funding was paused or delayed in 2025... it is unlikely that happens again. #medlibs 📚

Anyone have a source for basic definitions of NLP, ML, LLM?

Has anyone attended ASIS&T?

#medlibs come join me!

#medlibs we added a Muente C et al. #review that identified validated #geographic #searchfilters and reported on their development and performance measures sites.google.com/a/york.ac.uk...

Has anyone played with either Litsense www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/research/lit.... Or PubTator3 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/research/pub...?

Follow up from my post yesterday, yup, Wiley and T&F join SN and don’t support zero embargo on non-OA NIH submissions. Will be interesting to see what other publishers do. #medlibs

One thing you can do Right Now is be extremely vocal when you have librarians stocking inclusive collections. Call and tell them how happy you are, show up to board meetings. Bc the other side is *always* complaining and doing it in an organized way. also you can donate to Lavonnia Moore here:

“When you walk into the library, you should be able to find at least one thing that pertains to you,” This librarian was fired when she was just doing a hell of a good job. Kids get to be inquisitive about the world, including about who they are. Trans kids exist.

Hoarseness, a dry cough, and a sore throat are common symptoms of the new Covid variant called “Stratus,” in addition to the more common Covid symptoms such as fever, muscle aches, and fatigue.

To the “I voted for this” crowd: You voted for the guy who gutted the National Weather Service. Now we’ve got dead families and missing kids in Texas, because storm warnings didn’t go out in time. And he gutted FEMA so they can’t properly respond to disasters. That’s what you voted for?

Are there #medlibs who could help me locate a database and (and I cannot believe I am saying this) whether it (still) exists? I cannot find trace of it, outside of the occasional reference. Not on the org's website either... It's: RECAL Legacy (National Centre for Prosthetics & Orthodontics)

States, unlike the federal government, cannot have deficits. The massive cost shift from the feds to states for both Medicaid and SNAP, will just lead states to either massively cut, or just abandon altogether, these programs.

It’s only fun to stay at the YMCA when the #YMCA exists. With Trump restricting $6.8 BILLION in educational funds, our YMCAs will need to cease services immediately.

Any #hosplibs have access to the new Joint Commission 360 standards?
