\n<\/strong>Elaine Alligood, MLS, recently retired from her role as Chief of Library Service for the Boston VA Healthcare System. As a member of the New England VA Library Re-Design Task Force, she helped develop a consolidated, network-wide, 24\/7 virtual knowledge library, accessible across VA New England. One of the co-developers of the MLA CE program on\u00a0Diagnostic Error and the Librarian\u2019s Role in Patient Safety<\/i>, Elaine believes medical librarians\u2019 transforming roles perfectly align us with the clinical and research staff\u2019s ever-changing information needs, and that moving librarians out of the library to where information needs occur \u2013 at the point of care and research \u2013 benefits clinicians, researchers, and patients. Elaine earned her MLS from the University of Maryland School of Library and Information Science. Prior to joining the Boston VA Healthcare System, she held positions at the Johns Hopkins University Welch Medical Library, the University of Virginia Health Sciences Library, Elsevier Science Publisher\u2019s North American EMBASE Department, Harvard University Countway Medical Library, and the VA Technology Assessment Program as Informationist and Knowledge Manager.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
