New York's Transition to NER LILRC Hospital Library Services Coordinator, Sally Stieglitz, has been meeting virtually with the staff of the Network of the National Library of Medicine (NNLM) for the New England Region (NER) and with the HLSP coordinators at the eight other ESLN regions. Conversations have been about the health information needs of New York State librarians and library patrons and the transition into NER which also includes Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. NER is focused on a smooth and effective transition for New York, which was previously part of the Mid Atlantic Region. NER Communities of Interest The New England Region offers several Communities of Interest (COI) that "foster emerging roles for librarians in dynamic themse in the provision of health information." Curently, the COIs are for Graphic Medicine, Substance Abuse Disorder, and Hospital Librarianship. For more information visit the NNLM NER COI page. NNLM Day @MLA'21 NNLM representatives discussed the future of NNLM at NNLM Day at MLA. Recordings are available here.
