Popis: | With new challenges facing academic health sciences libraries in the 21st century, the profession needs to develop a workforce capable of integrating more directly into the campus organization, the research enterprise, and the clinical setting. To ensure that the profession has an expanding pool of talent with leadership capacity, the National Library of Medicine (NLM) and its outreach partners focus attention on promoting careers in health sciences librarianship and informatics among college and postmaster's students. This article addresses how NLM joins forces with organizations and partners such as the Medical Library Association, the American Library Association, the Association of Academic Health Sciences Libraries, and the Association of Research Libraries to sponsor recruitment programs, midcareer leadership training, and scholarships for library school students to achieve a diverse workforce. |
