Community Engagement at an Emerging Academic Medical Library: A Three-Pronged Outreach Model.
Medical reference services quarterly(2018)
Abstract
The Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine's (OUWB) service-oriented mission and vision is reflected in all aspects of the school including its culture, curriculum, research, community engagement, and the OUWB Medical Library. Though starting informally, the OUWB Medical Library's outreach program has matured and now sustains a wide array of activities each year. This outreach program has blossomed into a three-pronged model that is inclusive of activities and endeavors engaging the institution and local community: integrate, partner, and create. Among its successes and challenges, the library's ongoing outreach efforts have showcased the value of libraries in promoting community health and meaningfully contributing to the institutional mission.
