 | UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Welcome to tonight’s #ukmedlibs chat on information literacy. @tomroper at the controls tonight, Questions at https://t.co/eRJi4pPO4w |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs #ukmedlibs But first, do tweet an introduction, and tell us what you do vis-a-vis information literacy |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs And remember the hashtag #ukmedlibs or your finely chosen words will be lost to posterity |
 | Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn Hi all! I'm Holly, Outreach Librarian @SASHLibs I think I do the usual librarian stuff to promote info lit #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Q1 tonight is this: Information literacy has been described as a key compenent of evidence-based practice. Do we agree? #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Welcome, Sam, Ruth, Holly, Lisa…and the lurkers out there #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn Q1. Yes! Recognition of evidence as a need is information literacy #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Q1 And the ability to both locate and appraise that evidence …..? #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs That being so, what do we think of the levels of information literacy among health professionals? Be frank (but not libellous) #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs @Lifuinthelib Nicely put #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn @UKMedLibs It can be good. But I'm always surprised, like being asked how to tell the difference between a book & an article #ukmedlibs |
 | Louise Levitt @LouiseWann @UKMedLibs Q1 I think they recognise the importance of IL and how it relates to eb practice,but don't always have skills or time #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn But at least they recognise a gap in knowledge! Plus, new resources like ClinicalKey bring up everything #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs @RuthCarlyle Interesting, Is that work published? #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs @RuthCarlyle @samanthaclare We’ll watch with interest #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn @archelina Not necessarily, they still need to appraise what they've found. And understand when/how they need evidence in the 1st place! #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs @archelina @Hollingtonn That’s where tools like @tripdatabase seem to be going #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs How about Q3, new opportunities to teach information literacy? Both new ways, e.g. gamification /new content, e.g. social media #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn @UKMedLibs @archelina @tripdatabase Especially with resources like UptoDate & DynaMed where the evidence is summarised. I always point out source of info #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn @RuthCarlyle Danish public libraries have launched a "how to spot fake news" campaign #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn @archelina @UKMedLibs So true! Can be the same needs, but completely different user group. #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs #ukmedlibs An aside, how well has SCONUL’s Seven Pillars model stood the test of time. Nearly 20 years old now! https://t.co/5o2izCPbgy |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn @RuthCarlyle @archelina @UKMedLibs That would be very useful! #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs @RuthCarlyle @Hollingtonn @archelina What did you suggest? Lots of tools to assess materials, e.g. DISCERN, less for people #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs And that steers us towards Q5, about patient and public information literacy: what's our role? #ukmedlibs ( we'll come back to Q4) |
| Louise Levitt @LouiseWann @UKMedLibs Q4. Signposting to high quality info? #ukmedlibs |
| Louise Levitt @LouiseWann @UKMedLibs Sorry Q5 #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn RT @RuthCarlyle: |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs @RuthCarlyle Some lack of clarity on division of labour between us and public library services?#ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn Q5. Definitely signposting to quality info & supporting clinicians to feel confident to signpost too #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn Q5. Supporting our public libraries colleagues who are reviving patient info enquiries everyday #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn Q5. Supporting our public libraries colleagues who deal with patient enquiries daily #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs We don't have anyone here tonight from the public and patient work stream of KfH, do we? https://t.co/uT4paYF0Pq #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn @UKMedLibs @RuthCarlyle We can support each other as both sectors have different expertise in this area #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn @UKMedLibs Yep, me & @RuthCarlyle 😊 #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn RT @archelina: |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Can I throw in Q6 now, thinking about literacy more widely. Have you been involved in Books on Prescription, Six Book Challenge? #ukmedlibs |
 | MediaLiteracyBot @MediaLitBot RT @UKMedLibs: How about Q3, new opportunities to teach information literacy? Both new ways, e.g. gamification /new content, e.g. social media #ukmedlibs |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn @UKMedLibs 6 Book Challange is more for those with lower literacy levels, so our local public library ran an adult reading challenge #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs @pipdivall #ukmedlibs A legendary conference. Am I right, they’re keen to have more health contributions? #ukmedlibs |
 | Nicola Kingston @Nicola1642 RT @RuthCarlyle: |
| Holly Case Wyatt @Hollingtonn @UKMedLibs Q6. We've also taken part in Book Bingo, World Book Night and World Book Day #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs We're at 9, and I think we had a good chat (we arranged this one at short notice but was good) Thanks everyone for contributing #ukmedlibs |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs #ukmedlibs Thanks everyone. Next chat is on the MAP toolkit https://t.co/DIsi643HOO 16 May, same time, same place |
| UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs Goodnight everyone. #ukmedlibs |
