Information explosion has given a new dimension to medical education in the recent past. This has made library science even more challenging than ever before.

 

Application of new information technologies has been absorbed about library science, which has emerged in a new form today.

 

Immediate access to up to date information is essential for informed clinical practice and decision-making.  A broader range of information is now available with the advent of online journals and access to the database of other libraries through Internet.

 

This increases Physicians’ exposure to information at large, which also makes him better equipped in counseling and decision-making. Internet enables the medical professionals and consumers to access all the available information on the net.

 

However a librarian can play an important role in assisting access to this knowledge through an intelligent filtering system. This modality will not only streamline the access to focused knowledge but will also revolutionise the knowledge acquisition system.

 

The Hospital Librarian thus can bring expertise in dissipating and getting access of professional information to all the concerned personnel.
