Highlighting the fact that medical librarians are the best resource
when searching for health information, this year's NMLM theme is "Medical
Librarians: Your Ultimate Search Engine."
Thanks go to Carolyn J. Paul, MSLS, AHIP, Associate Director,
Treadwell Library, Massachusetts General Hospital for submitting this
year's winning theme.
See the Creative Promotions Award link below to submit your ideas for
the 2012 theme.
Celebrate National Medical Librarians Month by inviting your library
patrons to "Honor Your Medical Librarian" by joining
MLA as an Affiliate Member. The brochure,
specifically for MLA Affiliate Membership, can be downloaded, printed,
and distributed to those who may be interested. Physicians, veterinarians,
pharmacists, public health workers - just about anyone who uses your library
may wish to honor their favorite medical librarian in this way. MLA Affiliate
Membership is only $110/year and the benefits of that membership category
far outweigh the tax deduction realized by simply making a $110 donation
to the association - though that is certainly acceptable! Honorees will
receive a Certificate of Recognition and new affiliate members will receive
a Certificate of Appreciation.

be!
