It is demonstrated that hospitals are information-dependent and that there is need for integration of information generated and gathered through their subsystems. This paper discusses recommendations of the Matheson Report for an integrated information management system which would link these subsystems. The library's statement of mission, means for self-assessment, and analysis of information needs and uses are explored. Future directions with examples of new roles for the library are outlined.
事实证明,医院依赖信息,需要整合通过其子系统生成和收集的信息。本文讨论了马西森报告中关于将这些子系统连接起来的综合信息管理系统的建议。探讨了图书馆的使命声明、自我评估手段以及信息需求和用途分析。概述了未来的发展方向,并举例说明了图书馆的新角色。
