 | UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Good evening, and welcome to tonight’s #ukmedlibs chat on the librarian’s role in coronavirus, and other public health emergencies. We’re delighted to have @DeBrun to lead the discussion. She’s prepared questions: https://t.co/kLYe6dhxql |
 | HIFA @hifa_org #ukmedlibs Hello, Neil Pakenham-Walsh here from @HIFA_org - looking forward to learn from you - I am passionate about meeting healthcare information needs globally, especially in low-income countries where needs are greatest https://t.co/ImfZmDmI8P |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Housekeeping: don’t forget to use the hashtag #ukmedlibs or your contributions may not be seen by everyone, and won’t make it to the transcript. |

| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Q1 How has your library supported the community during a significant event this year, whether directly or indirectly? Have you provided a safe haven, charging points, meeting centre, support for medical incidents, information to the public and/or emergency services? #ukmedlibs |
| HIFA @hifa_org Join the tweetchat happening now (for 1 hour only) on #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs By the way, if you link to resources in tonight’s #ukmedlibs chat, we’ll bring them all together in a post-chat list |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Shall I bring in the next of @DeBrun’s questions? Q2 How did you get involved? Did you have sufficient support, both during and after the event? Did you work with librarians from other sectors or with non-library colleagues/partners? #ukmedlibs |

 | Angela Spencer @angspenc RT @RuthCarlyle: |
| HIFA @hifa_org @DeBrun "how it feels so remote" Today we heard from a HIFA member confined in Zhejiang Province, one of the worst affected in China. A pandemic will happen sooner or later, affecting the UK. As Dr Tedros, Director-General of WHO has said: "We should be afraid". #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Let’s launch Q4 into the fray #ukmedlibs. What characteristics, knowledge and skills do you feel library staff need when communities are going through difficult times? https://t.co/Y9sUs5ff6r |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Here’s Q5: What cost might there be to library and knowledge services? To get the ball rolling, if a service responds to an emergency, there’s probably some of the day-to-day stuff that gets a lower priority #ukmedlibs https://t.co/kUhmRLFG75 |
 | Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn Sorry I’m missing this chat! My little girl is poorly and is having trouble sleeping #ukmedlibs |
| HIFA @hifa_org @samanthaclare @DeBrun Yes, my previous comment 'pandemic sooner or later' meant 'if not this one, then another virus will cause a pandemic sooner or later' (Neil PW) #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs #ukmedlibs Q6 What benefits might there be to libraries who provide support to communities in need? https://t.co/fV5JSm6fik |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Let’s put Q7 into the mixing bowl:What activities are you planning in your organisation over the next 12 months to help communities during emergency circumstances? #ukmedlibs https://t.co/6yXy8a7gY0 |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs @DeBrun @CILIPHLG No. We’ve talked about KM methods in general before, but not AARs specifically or in detail. #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Q8 IFLA’s Evidence for Global & Disaster Special Interest Group is trying to help libraries make communities more resilient. Working with other organisations e.g. @NHS_HealthEdEng and @CILIPinfo, what can this SIG do to help? What support would be useful? #ukmedlibs https://t.co/1J5O4Vxxie |
| HIFA @hifa_org Is there a practical guide for how to prepare libraries for public health emergencies/pandemics? (Neil PW) #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs @NHS_HealthEdEng @CILIPinfo And worth mentioning that the SIG has a satellite meeting at #wlic2020 https://t.co/hmivCfwAOY #ukmedlibs |
| HIFA @hifa_org @DeBrun Excellent compilation of resources on coronavirus |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Thanks everyone, and especially @DeBrun for your leadership. It was a splendid chat. Transcript will be up tomorrow: we’ll tweet. And will also add resources. Feel free to keep chatting. The cut off for the transcript is 21.15 #ukmedlibs |
