Joint Meeting Update


The Joint Meeting of the Northern California and Nevada (NCNMLG) and Medical Library Group of Southern California and Arizona (MLGSCA) in Scottsdale, Arizona was a great success! It was an excellent opportunity to learn about border health, rural health, and public health issues as well as innovative ways to deliver health information to the public. We learned about Open Source (PSRML and NN/LM web sites both use open source software!), were stimulated to think about models of hospital librarianship, and challenged with new ways to deliver NLM products and services. For more information, go to the conference web site at http://www.mlgsca.mlanet.org/jtmtg2002/.

PSRML staffed an exhibit booth throughout the conference and provided an update on January 31, 2002. Slides used for the update are available on the PSRML web site at http://nnlm.gov/psr/ppt/jt_mtg2002.pps (or navigate from the PSRML home page -> About Us -> Reports and Resources -> Presentations and Handouts). The slide show begins with an overview of network characteristics of the Pacific Southwest Region, and includes our thanks to network members who have contributed to outreach subcontracts, exhibits, and Latitudes articles. A handout, What's New at PSRML, was also distributed. A copy is available at: http://nnlm.gov/psr/pdf/jm_02.pdf.  - JKK
