12. Setting the scene 12 Traditional Library Services What do our patrons want? Give it to them! Progress corporate strategic plan Realign as a Corporate Service New Library in Education space Clinical Education Collection Non-traditional services Where is opportunity add value? Get out into hospital and see what needs to be done

13. Librarians are great! 13 We do our job very well Not all patrons are created equal - identify key stakeholders and provide premium lib services We are seen as technology/web experts – use this to integrate New library is a learning space – food, drink, noise, circulation – no barriers. Align with strategic plan

14. Can you do that? 14 We do extra things  Purchase coordination  Clearinghouse  Negotiations w suppliers  Database evaluation for Advisory Committees  Use knowledge mgt and infrastructure to help other depts.  clinical skills equipment on ILMS  libguides as dept homepages

17. Think about…… 17 Provide the services they want, nothing they don’t want. Work outside the library – who can say no to a problem solver? What you do well and where it is needed in your organisation? No experience is lost Get the feel of the organisation – what works?

18. Bask in the love…… 18 Just a quick email to commend you on Discovery Gateway. It is a truly innovative and fantastic resource. Dr Emma Cohen, Research Fellow So we can just hook into your system – that’s great! Tess Vawser, Director Clinical Education and Simulation. I am really impressed with your body of knowledge; our problem will be solved with your systems. Tom Hallahan, Simulation Coordinator Dear Susie, you are our hero! Thankyou so much for all the research you have done for us. This would have taken me weeks and I still wouldn’t have the quality of research papers you have found. Thank you so much Lisa Rodgers, NUM
