The Health Science Librarians of Illinois (HSLI) serves as the primary statewide organization meeting the needs and interests of all information professionals who focus on the area of health and medical science.
These dedicated professionals serve communities by working in various professional environments, including hospitals, state agencies, and universities. This diverse group of individuals thrives on the constant networking and sharing of information, which allows for the continuing success of the group through the support of the development of the health science library services in Illinois. The organization keeps all members informed of the latest trends and communicates to all members through the web site and quarterly newsletter. HSLI sponsors liaisons to the National Networks of Libraries of Medicine, the Illinois State Library, and the MLA Midwest Chapter.
