How can a library-based bioinformatics support program be implemented and expanded to continuously support the growing and changing needs of the research community?
A program at a health sciences library serving a large academic medical center with a strong research focus is described.
The bioinformatics service program was established at the Norris Medical Library in 2005. As part of program development, the library assessed users' bioinformatics needs, acquired additional funds, established and expanded service offerings, and explored additional roles in promoting on-campus collaboration.
Personnel and software have increased along with the number of registered software users and use of the provided services.
With strategic efforts and persistent advocacy within the broader university environment, library-based bioinformatics service programs can become a key part of an institution's comprehensive solution to researchers' ever-increasing bioinformatics needs.
如何实施并扩展基于图书馆的生物信息学支持项目,以持续满足研究群体不断增长和变化的需求?
描述了一个在以研究为重点的大型学术医疗中心服务的健康科学图书馆开展的项目。
生物信息学服务项目于2005年在诺里斯医学图书馆设立。作为项目发展的一部分,该图书馆评估了用户的生物信息学需求,获取了额外资金,建立并扩展了服务内容,并探索了在促进校内合作方面的更多作用。
人员和软件数量随着注册软件用户数量以及所提供服务的使用量而增加。
通过在更广泛的大学环境中的战略努力和持续宣传,基于图书馆的生物信息学服务项目可以成为机构全面解决研究人员日益增长的生物信息学需求方案的关键部分。
