Abstract

Librarians working in clinical settings are challenged by clinicians’ lack of time for nonessential reading. At Pennsylvania Hospital, partnership between the clinical librarian and a senior physician resulted in an e-newsletter. After initially distributing via e-mail only, Dreamweaver was used to create an archive of past issues, and all subsequent issues were produced as HTML versions for instant archiving. The newsletter aims to provide medicine residents, faculty, medical school students, and other members of the Penn Medicine community with hand-selected educational reading material from both popular and scholarly sources. The ultimate goal is to encourage good reading habits for lifelong and professional learning.
