The librarian working with your department can:
- Partner in grant preparation and systematic reviews of the literature
- Assist with information location, evaluation, organization, and presentation
- Integrate information competency instruction into courses, curriculum, and continuing education
- Develop tools for staying up to date with the research in your field
- Provide information about copyright and changing publication practices
- Orient new faculty and staff to library resources and services
- Send alerts about new information tools, library services and programs
- Communicate your needs for resources and services to the library
HSL librarians work with schools or departments based on the librarian's education, prior experience, and research interests. Through this work, librarians develop a deeper understanding of the information needs and resources in a field. Their accumulated knowledge directly benefits the schools and departments through high quality customized library services provided to students, faculty, clinicians, and staff.
