National Library of Medicine Launches ReferencePoint Blog, Targets Health Sciences Library Staff

August 29, 2011 by Gary Price

Welcome to the ReferencePoint Team!

From the NLM Technical Bulletin

The National Library of Medicine® (NLM®) has a new blog, ReferencePoint, targeting health sciences library staff in the U.S. and abroad.

ReferencePoint postings will:

  • Increase the awareness of NLM products and services available online and onsite.
  • Inform the targeted audiences about health sciences resources outside of NLM.
  • Promote dialogue and learning exchanges between NLM staff and staff at other libraries.

This is a moderated blog which anyone can see; reference librarians and other NLM staff will write, review, and respond to comments during regular business hours. Ask questions or comment about any resources listed in the space at the end of each posting. You must register and log-in to post comments. You can also read ReferencePoint as an RSS feed.

Direct to ReferencePoint

The blog is being written/compiled by the Reference & Web Services Staff at the National Library of Medicine in lovely Bethesda, MD. They’re just a couple of miles from one of INFOdocket’s offices.
