Health Sciences Library Annual Report (2017-2018)
The tabs above draw attention to the service areas of the Library, each reporting on the academic year 2017-2018 (July 2017 to June 2018). Our skilled librarians lead each of the areas: Access Services, Public Services, Education Services & Research Support. We've also added an "Initiatives & News" tab to highlight special events and promotions from the year.
Included below are the operational priorities for the year 2017-2018 with status outcomes, and the operational priorities for 2018-2019. With a high achieving team, the goals are always ambitious and largely always completed.
We have an annual review process that ensures that these priorities continue to align with NOSM's Strategic Plan and related goals. We engage with our stakeholders to ensure our goals reflect the needs of our users, in addition to operational requirements. Suggestions for future priorities are always welcome.
Previous reports are available on our website, and please do share your comments or questions about this report.
Sincerely,
Patty Fink - Director, Research & Health Sciences Library
