Medical informatics is the use of computers and software to solve clinical or health care problems and the use of algorithms to improve communication, understanding, and management of medical information . The course will enable our librarians to familiarize themselves with the application of information science and computer technologies in health care, biomedical research, and health professions education. Members can look forward to new classes on the use of evidence based medicine and informatics in research and clinical practice. HML will also explore ways to collaborate with Queens and UH individuals responsible for developing medical informatics applications in their institutional settings. When selecting journals, our intent was to minimize the impact on the collections and library users.
