ABSTRACT

On January 23, 1991, Nancy Start founded MEDLIB-L, an e-mail discussion list managed by the Medical Library Association for Health Information Professionals. It continues today to be an online gathering space for reference questions, help with difficult search strategies, placing and filling interlibrary loan requests, posting job vacancies, noting appreciation of good advice and weaving threads of conversations. This article analyzes the demographics and contents of MEDLIB-L archives from March 2011–March 2016. The data truly captures a snapshot of the daily goings on of a medical librarian.
