HLIB-NW

Listserve for the Northwest health sciences library community

HLIB-NW is a discussion list created and maintained by staff members of the Pacific Northwest Regional Office of the National Network of Libraries of Medicine (PNR/NNLM).

According to the HLIB-NW FAQ:

"The HLIB-NW List exists to facilitate electronic communications via the Internet among the health sciences library community in the Northwest. It provides a forum for discussing practical, theoretical, and philosophical issues and for exchanging advice, information, ideas, and resources of interest to its intended audience. This list is not meant to take the place of MEDLIB-L but rather to serve as an adjunct forum for those interested in health sciences libraries in the Northwest.

Appropriate uses of the HLIB-NW List include, but are not limited to, publicizing regional meetings, classes, and other educational offerings; making announcements of regional interest, including job postings; sharing information and resources; and asking for advice from colleagues.

The HLIB-NW List is not intended for advertisements by publishers, software producers, or other vendors, however discussions and questions about products and services initiated by list subscribers are appropriate. The list is also not the place for non-librarians to ask reference questions or to ask for assistance with library research."
