Technology Column Editors Needed
(from Medlib)
The Journal of Hospital Librarianship is looking for two editors for the Technology column. There are presently two editors for the column who would like to expand the number of editors so that each person would be responsible for only one column per year.
The responsibilities of the editors are to solicit articles from colleagues on some aspect of technology used in libraries-especially hospital libraries or something that can be adapted for use in hospital libraries. The editor is also welcome to write the column if s/he chooses.
We are especially interested in having a MLS student try his/her hand at writing/editing a column. One of the goals of the Editorial Board is mentoring new authors and we thought it might be interesting to also mentor a student editor. The student editor position would be for one year (rather than at will) but it could be renewed if the student (new grad?) wished to remain in the position.
JHL is a quarterly publication and the next deadline dates are October 10, December 10, March 10. For further information, contact either the Editor, Carole Gilbert
carole.gilbert@providence-stjohnhealth.org, or the column editors Soraya Assar at n4matishun@yahoo.com or Barbara Platts at bplatts@mhc.net.
This is a perfect opportunity for medical librarians who are interested in technology and writing. I know there are a few of you out there :) this is a way to get out there and help our profession get more tech. savy.
