# ASTED-Santé et services sociaux

The Quebec chapter of CHLA (ASTED 3S), which is the Quebec provincial network of health libraries, organized a continuing education training day that took place on 7 June 2013 at the Montreal Jewish General Hospital. The subjects discussed were the recent amendments to the Canadian Copyright Act, the use of mobile apps in healthcare, and an introduction to evidence-based medicine. The use of videoconference for the first time was very successful, permitting librarians from outside of Montreal to participate. More than 50 participants attended.

The Quebec chapter of CHLA as well as 10 people from the University of Montreal and McGill University are working together to organize next year's CHLA/ABSC conference.

Our chapter continued developing a blog as a communication tool for its members (http://www.asted3s.info/).

In 2013, 25 posts were published and 536 visits were made. This blog is a complement to our electronic discussion list that holds more than 200 participants. It also gives access to the electronic phone book including 60 Quebec health-related libraries.
