A health education outreach partnership between an academic medical library and public library: lessons learned before and during a pandemic

Background:Public libraries serve as community centers for accessing free, trustworthy health information. As such, they provide an ideal setting to teach the local community about health and health literacy, particularly during public health crises like the COVID-19 pandemic. Since 2018, an outreach partnership between an academic medical library and public library has developed, delivered, and continuously evaluated a health education program targeting public library users.Case Presentation:Health education activities were integrated into three existing public library programs: adult workshops, child and family programming, and circulating family activity kits. Prior to COVID-19, events were held at the public library, which then pivoted online during the pandemic. An interprofessional team approach combined the expertise of academic medical and public librarians, medical school faculty and staff, and medical students in developing the educational programs. Twelve in-person and five virtual programs were offered, and five circulating health education family kits were launched. Activities were assessed using program evaluation surveys of the adult and children''s programs and circulation statistics of the kits.Conclusions:This case report showcases the lessons learned from implementing a longitudinal outreach partnership between an academic medical library and public library before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The interprofessional team approach and flexibility in program design and delivery in both the in-person and virtual environments proved critical to the success of the partnership. This partnership could serve as a model for other libraries interested in pursuing interprofessional collaborations in educating local communities on healthy behavior and health information–seeking practices.

图书馆在舆情监测分新中的功能优势研究

真实、完整、及时的信息来源,是科学决策的基础。其中,舆情信息对于领导决策必不可少。舆情,是指民众对管理者的某些政策、制度和施政行为及有关社会现象所持态度的舆论。舆情是发布者思想的反映,不同程度地影响接受者的思想和行动,而且舆情能够在传播过程中产生共振放大效应,形成更大的群体压力。因此,对舆情的及时掌握、科学分析和妥善处置,考验着各级政府及其领导干部的执政能力。文章着重研究图书馆在舆情监测分析中的功能优势。     

建设市民“大邻居”式的公共图书馆

文章通过介绍国外公共图书馆在建筑设计,服务手段上如何体现人文关怀的实例,阐述了把图书馆构建成市民的“大邻居”的人文理念,即在帮助市民及时获得知识信息的同时增进人文交流,做市民的好邻居,使市民在图书馆休闲娱乐,享受健康生活。文章还对比国外公共图书馆成功经验,指出中国公共图书馆实际存在的问题：经费来源差距导致发展受限;图书馆分布不均凸显资源分配失衡;服务意识淡薄,阻碍图书馆人性化发展。对中国公共图书馆的未来提出了构想：坚持以人为本的思想,在服务手段上力求创新,为市民提供贴心的人文关怀。     

Reinventing the public value of libraries

ABSTRACT

Libraries worldwide have had to re-think their purpose and adapt to changing community needs and expectations. They are no longer simply repositories for old books. Rather, they are vital components of a community’s social and economic infrastructure that connects communities and fosters creativity and innovation. This paper explores the changing role of libraries—and public value organizations more broadly—in creating positive social, economic, and environmental outcomes for individuals and communities.

Beyond the first year: Supporting sophomores through information literacy outreach

The sophomore year is increasingly becoming a target of retention efforts, as universities and colleges realize that nearly as much attrition occurs between the sophomore and junior years as between the first and sophomore years. As a result, there is an opportunity for libraries to reach out to and target second-year students. This article presents a case study of a sophomore outreach program at the University of Puget Sound focused on citation management software. Our results suggest that libraries should pursue outreach targeting the sophomore population.     

Connecting best practices in public relations to social media strategies for academic libraries

Academic libraries worldwide use social media to inform and connect with users. Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) Libraries is no different and must keep up with rapidly evolving platforms and user expectations. When our presence stretched across twenty-two channels, we needed to ensure that social media efforts were managed in the most effective and efficient manner possible. To develop a research-based, unified vision for communication for new media, we scanned the literature in the library and public relations fields and then surveyed librarians to address identified gaps. Based on results, we offer recommendations focused on best management practices and strong content strategies.
