Episode 6 of the NNLM Discovery Podcast, is “Medical Librarians” from Region 7.
Very few people know what a medical librarian is or does. You don’t find medical librarians portrayed on Chicago Hope, or House, or ER. Hollywood is missing out on some great storylines! On this episode of the NNLM Discovery Podcast, Region 7 Education and Outreach Coordinator, Margot Malachowski interviews four medical librarians from her region.
Their stories remind us that even in a world of instantly accessible information these information navigators serve an important role that allows clinicians to focus their time on caring for patients rather than refining searches of medical literature.
How about this one that just came out this week:

Healthy Garden, Healthy You: A Story from Region 1
When is a vegetable more than just a vegetable? When the act of growing one helps combat stress and is a commitment to environmental health and justice. On this episode of the NNLM Discovery podcast, Region One outreach librarian April Wright shares her story with host Yamila El-Khayat about how she helped Dr. Rachel Goldstein at the University of Maryland’s School of Public Health use an NNLM Health Information Outreach Award to expand the reach of her Healthy Garden, Healthy Youth project. This project helps address two of the most significant public health challenges facing our nation: mental health challenges and food insecurity. Dr. Goldstein’s team worked with underserved communities in Maryland with limited access to fresh food to understand the mental health, physical health, and cost benefits of growing their own food.
