NOTICE OF LECTURE Date: Friday, September 19th Time: 11:45 a.m. Place: University Hall, MacDonald Building, Dalhousie University ********************************************************************** "Critical Condition": The Case for a National Network of Libraries for Health (NNLH) by Patrick Ellis, Kellogg Health Sciences Library, Dalhousie University *************************************************************************** Health Librarians believe Canada needs a National Network of Libraries for Health. Health practitioners everywhere in the country need the same access to the best information to share knowledge and evidence. Access today is a patchwork, with no assurances of equity or quality. NNLH will provide this access and capability, as well as build a platform for change, cooperation and sustainability. Patrick Ellis is presently co-chair of the NNLH Task Force and chair for Novanet's Opac Functional contacts. He has served as Chair of CHLA's Resource Sharing Task Force which implemented the use of NLM's Docline in Canada and has been president of the Canadian Health Libraries Association. This lecture is open to the public at "no charge." ALL ARE WELCOME! School of Library and Information Studies Dalhousie University Halifax, NS B3H 3J5
