A Randomized Trial of Librarian Educational Participation in Clinical Settings.

Marshall, Joanne Gard; Neufeld, Victor R.

Journal of Medical Education, v56 n5 p409-16 May 1981

In order to evaluate the librarian's educational role in patient care settings, an information service was provided for health professionals, patients, and families by two part-time clinical librarians at McMaster University. Results showed that the clinical librarians were accepted by health professionals and services were viewed as successful. (Author/MLW)
