Abstract

In today’s health care setting, medical professionals need to update, find
evidence and fill the gaps in the existing knowledge with material from the ever-growing body of research literature. The paucity of time and lack of skills required for literature search makes this task difficult. The clinical librarian, medical librarian, clinical information specialist/scientist, and medical information specialist/scientist are terms used for librarians who assist in this task and search literature as a direct service. This could enhance improve care decisions and help in the practice of evidence based medicine.

Keywords: Lifelong learner; Evidence based medicine; Clinical medical
librarian.
