Competencies for health professionals and students often include the ability to transfer knowledge to different audiences in a variety of ways. Consultation, presentation, teaching, multimedia, and posters are some examples. A recent question on a national listserv about writing, editing, and proofreading services in health sciences libraries prompted this column about a potentially novel way of helping students and faculty in health disciplines to improve their abilities to communicate professionally. In addition to the poster design and review services that one library offers, it is also the host of two Toastmasters International clubs that provide participants a nonthreatening, real-world environment to improve the content, structure, methods, and delivery of their written and spoken messages. A librarian on staff is a member of and serves as liaison to the two clubs.
卫生专业人员和学生的能力通常包括以多种方式将知识传授给不同受众的能力。咨询、演讲、教学、多媒体和海报等都是例子。最近在一个全国性的邮件列表上，有人询问健康科学图书馆的写作、编辑和校对服务，这促使我撰写了本专栏，介绍一种可能新颖的方法，帮助健康学科的学生和教师提高他们的专业沟通能力。除了一个图书馆提供的海报设计和评审服务外，它还主办了两个国际演讲会俱乐部，为参与者提供一个无威胁的真实环境，以改进他们书面和口头信息的内容、结构、方法和表达方式。一名在职图书馆员是这两个俱乐部的成员，并担任与它们的联络人。
