President's Corner 

 Dear Friends: 

It's the start of a new year for OHSLA -- our 16th! After the excitement of last year when we hosted the Midwest Chapter Annual Meeting in Columbus, celebrated our 15th Anniversary and enjoyed a great spring meeting at Mt. Carmel, what can we do to top that for 2010-2011!  

Let's consider what OHSLA can do for YOU now. 

  • Provides  an environment where YOU can make contacts with health science librarians throughout the state who can serve as mentors, confidants, problem solvers, supporters, you name it, the list is endless

  • Offers inexpensive continuing education courses for YOUR personal and professional development

  • Keeps YOU up to date with current happenings in the hospitals and health science academic institutions  through the OHSLA Voice

  • Makes available (to YOU) a discussion forum through the membership only listserv 

Here's what we plan for this year. 

  • Survey the membership regarding health literacy initiatives at YOUR institution and create a database of YOUR responses for YOUR collective use

  • Provide terrific content (to YOU) for our two inexpensive meetings

  • Survey as many health sciences librarians or library staff as we can identify to ask how we can make OHSLA more relevant and helpful to YOU

Notice that most of the above statements have the word YOU or YOUR in them. OHSLA is YOUR organization. Help us keep it vital by participating and taking advantage of all the opportunities offered.

With warm regards,
