A day with the Ohio Health Sciences Library Association (OHSLA)

Posted by on May 5th, 2017 Posted in: Blog


Tour of the libraryToday, I joined the fine members of OHSLA, the Ohio Health Sciences Library Association (the abbreviation is pronounced “oh-slaw,” rhymes with “coleslaw”) for their annual spring meeting at the beautiful Columbus Metropolitan Library downtown Columbus, Ohio. The meeting featured a presentation of the class EBM/EBP: The Basics, presented by Megan von Isenberg from Duke Medical Center Library and a tour of the newly renovated Columbus Metropolitan Library.

I shared with the group the new goals of NNLM, promoted our upcoming course offerings (we have 24 hours of education already on the registration system for next year!), and encouraged members to partner with us by applying for our funding opportunities. Great timing too, as OHSLA members will be attending a grant and proposal writing course soon. For readers who are interested, the slides are available here.

This was a chance to meet some of our members from Ohio and answer questions regarding our programs and services. And, a chance to give away a few of our goofy, retro MedlinePlus screen cleaners!

This picture shows the group on a tour of the renovated library, complete with a topiary garden out back.
