The interns are given the opportunity to see how library staff access, manage, and apply medical research and interact with those on the Yale Medical Campus who work hands on with research.
YALE MEDICAL LIBRARY
Wednesday, August 1, 2007
Today is my second day interning at the Yale Medical Library. First I attended a meeting where the employees shared everything they were doing up to date. Then i met with Jane. She told me about her job. There is a classroom where students can come and learn how to use different web browsers for research and how to make citations using programs such as Refworks. There are classes where anyone can attend and other classes where a professor may request private classes for his or her students. Another type of class includes an integrated classroom setting. I got the chance to read a few thesis statements from former Yale Nursing School Students. A few of them included:The Nurse-Midwife Patient Relationship and Nurse- Midwifes use of Universal Precautions, Do Race and Ethnicity influence Perceptions of Health Care Practitioners,and the Integration of African Americans at the Yale University of Nursing. After I read them Charles Greenberg and I walked over to the School of Nursing. There I met Janene Batten. She was in the middle of a meeting about cost management so are time was very brief but she was a very nice lady and she gave me a lot of information about her job.
