Item A Case Study: The Evolution of a "Facilitator Model" Liaison Program in an Academic Medical Library(Medical Library Association, 2012-07) Crossno, Jon E.; DeShay, Claudia H.; Huslig, Mary Ann; Mayo, Helen G.; Patridge, Emily F.QUESTION: What type of liaison program would best utilize both librarians and other library staff to effectively promote library services and resources to campus departments? SETTING: The case is an academic medical center library serving a large, diverse campus. METHODS: The library implemented a "facilitator model" program to provide personalized service to targeted clients that allowed for maximum staff participation with limited subject familiarity. To determine success, details of liaison-contact interactions and results of liaison and department surveys were reviewed. RESULTS: Liaisons successfully recorded 595 interactions during the program's first 10 months of existence. A significant majority of departmental contact persons (82.5%) indicated they were aware of the liaison program, and 75% indicated they preferred email communication. CONCLUSION: The "facilitator model" provides a well-defined structure for assigning liaisons to departments or groups; however, training is essential to ensure that liaisons are able to communicate effectively with their clients.Item Do routine eye exams reduce occurrence of blindness from type 2 diabetes?(Dowden Health Media, 2004-09) Tubbs, Charles G.; Safeek, Abraham; Mayo, Helen G.Item Do steroid injections help with osteoarthritis of the knee?(Dowden Health Media, 2004-11) Palacios, Luis C.; Jones, Wanwisa Y.; Mayo, Helen G.Item Does yoga speed healing for patients with low back pain?(Dowden Health Media, 2004-08) Graves, Nathan; Krepcho, Martin; Mayo, Helen G.Item Pain Management After Elective Foot and Ankle Surgery: A Systematic Review of Literature(2013-09) Wang, Jia; Liu, George T.; Mayo, Helen G.; Joshi, Girish P.Item Use of focus groups in a library's strategic plannng process(Medical Library Association, 2002-01) Higa-Moore, Mori Lou; Bunnett, Brian; Mayo, Helen G.; Olney, Cynthia A.Item What is the best treatment for hypertension in African Americans?(Dowden Health Media, 2007-02) Rao, Shobha; Cherukuri, Manjula; Mayo, Helen G.Item What is the best treatment for pertussis?(Dowden Health Media, 2005-12) Tubbs, Charles; Niemi, Heli; Mayo, Helen G.
