If you had 25 hours in a day, what would you do with the extra hour?<\/h4>\nIf you had 25 hours in a day, what would you do with the extra hour?<\/h4>\nMake more desserts. I love a complicated baking project, and while my flavors and techniques are strong, I think that an extra hour would really help my decoration skills.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Boston Children\u2019s Medical Library has three librarians, and our patrons are anyone who works for the hospital \u2013 clinical and non-clinical, from any department or satellite location. We maintain digital and print collections, teach classes on databases and tools, run literature searches, assist during in-person rounds, coauthor systematic reviews, and more! It\u2019s rewarding to work with colleagues who are so focused on innovation and excellence, and who tend to really value our skills and contributions \u2013 especially when we\u2019re saving them time.<\/p>\n We\u2019re moving locations next summer, so I\u2019m working on assessing our print collection to figure out what will move with us. It\u2019s part deaccession plan, part anticipating (and hopefully alleviating) the unavoidable emotional reactions of colleagues around the hospital.<\/span><\/p>\n DOCLINE! It’s invaluable to be part of such a responsive and generous network of libraries. Our patrons think it’s magic when we can get them rare and hard-to-fine articles from other institutions, and it definitely helps our reputation that we can almost always get them what they are asking for.<\/p>\n I love living in Boston because you\u2019re under two hours from both the mountains and the beach! There\u2019s always something beautiful to go see when you want to get out of the city.<\/span><\/p>\n NNLM is cleaning up the Library Groups in DOCLINE. We need to identify defunct groups and assign contact information to existing groups. Please contact Margot Malachowski (email below) with questions, concerns, and tidbits of information.
