    Project: iPads to support CLIP Consumer Health Ambassador Program
    Awardee: Atlantic Health System Overlook Medical Center, Summit, NJ.
    Description: The Atlantic Health System (AHS) will provide iPads for the Ambassadors who visit inpatients’ bedsides. We wish to extend our Consumer Library Information Prescription (CLIP) program to the inpatient population at the Morristown Medical Center and Overlook Medical Center campuses. In doing so, ambassadors will use iPads to take notes and send requests for patient information directly to the librarian. The librarian will prepare a packet of information for delivery back to the patient.

    Project: NOOKs and iPads for Healthcare Consumers
    Awardee: Myra Mahon Patient Resource Center, Weill Medical College, Cornell University New York, NY.
    Description: The Myra Mahon Patient Resource Center (PRC) at the Joan & Sanford I. Weill Cornell Medical College of Cornell University (WCMC) develops and implements initiatives designed to engage and educate patients of varying ages and ethnicities with a variety of health conditions in support of making healthcare decisions. Funding will support the PRC to further its mission of providing patients with information and educational resources by using electronic tablets to expand patients’ information access. The PRC also seeks support to purchase, format, and load digital content onto tablets including the PRC’s Health Seminar Series and educational materials related for the new “information prescription” (Info Rx) program. These technologies will enable the PRC to deliver patient-centered resources in ways that are both effective and novel.

    Project: Redesign of East Brunswick Public Library’s Just for the Health of It Community-Wide Health Portal
    Awardee: East Brunswick Public Library, East Brunswick, NJ.
    Description: The East Brunswick Public Library created the Just for the Health of It community-wide health portal in 2011 (www.wcllinks.org), as the cornerstone of the library’s health literacy initiative to encourage healthy living for the residents of our diverse, multicultural community. The portal is focused on delivering trustworthy health and wellness information to our residents with a local focus. Since launching in spring 2011, the portal has outgrown its original, custom content management system (CMS) design and would be better served by an open source platform that is dynamic, technically relevant, and responsive to how people use information today. This project will redesign the East Brunswick Public Library’s “Just for the Health of It” community-wide health portal into a flexible, open source platform that would allow librarians to easily maintain and update the site, adding content in a much more timely fashion. In addition, an open source platform will facilitate the addition of web pages for children, teens and caretakers, and empower the site to offer mobile access to meet the expectations of today’s users.

    Project: An Assessment of Health Information Needs of Critical Access Hospitals in Pennsylvania and New York
    Awardee: Madhu Reddy, The Pennsylvania State University, College of Information Sciences and Technology, University Park, PA
    Description: While health information technology (HIT) has the potential to improve access to information, reduce medical errors, lower costs, and improve patient care, many hospitals---especially Critical Access Hospitals (CAHs) ---cannot afford the costs associated with infrastructure development and maintenance. Consequently, more needs to be learned about the health information needs of clinicians working at CAHs. In this project, an online assessment of 24 CAHs in Pennsylvania and New York will be made to ascertain their HIT and health information needs. Project:

    Project: Waiting Room Education
    Awardee: Kristine N. Voos, Genesee County Health Department, Batavia, NY
    Description: The Genesee County Health Department (DOH) will encourage access to high quality health information by allowing county residents to interactively explore websites supported by the National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NN/LM) through the use of computer tablets that will be available in the clinic waiting room area during public clinics and during several outreach opportunities. Promotion for the use of NN/LM-supported websites will occur at clinics, advertisements will be disbursed in Genesee County, through the use of the Time Warner Cable’s community calendar, Genesee County Health Department’s Facebook page, newspaper ads, flyers, and posters.

    Project: iPad Technology: Targeted Evolution of Embedded Librarian Services
    Awardee: Deborah Chiarella and Elizabeth Stellrecht, University at Buffalo Health Sciences Library, Buffalo, NY
    Description: The University at Buffalo Health Sciences Library (UBHSL) provides reference and instructional services to support the research, curricular and clinical programs of the Schools of Dental Medicine, Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, Nursing, Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, and Public Health and Health Professions as well as support for the New York State Center of Excellence in Bioinformatics and Life Sciences. The UBHSL will purchase seven iPads, two portable projectors and accompanying accessories to develop embedded research and promote educational services through the use of NLM products such as PubMed, MedlinePlus and other NCBI tools. The iPads will be used by the six library liaisons to provide point of care information in the clinical setting, embedded reference hours in academic and clinical departments, and off campus instruction. The seventh iPad will be used by the UBHSL information technology support personnel to provide technical information and support to the instructional team. By leveraging the portability and power of iPads in combination with the evidence based practice expertise of UBHSL liaisons, this project will allow the UBHSL to reach more students and faculty at the point of their educational need and provide them with instruction in quality information resources such as PubMed which will continue to meet their information needs upon graduation and continuation in their profession. Funding will allow us to effectively transform evidence based practice and information literacy education, and consequently meet our overarching goal--to educate and produce a healthcare workforce equipped to discover, evaluate and synthesize health information.

    Project: Understanding the Psychiatric Issues of Dementia
    Awardee: Rebecca May-Cole, Executive Director, Pennsylvania Behavioral Health and Aging Coalition, Inc. (PBHAC)
    Description: The Pennsylvania Behavioral Health and Aging Coalition (PBHAC), a statewide alliance of individuals and organizations concerned about the unmet behavioral health (i.e. mental health and substance use disorder) needs of older adults across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, provides advocacy, assistance, education, resolution, and collaboration, as well as identifying gaps in the behavioral health and aging service systems and collecting data. Our staff and Board of Directors are proud to propose a one-day training seminar "Understanding the Psychiatric Issues of Dementia." This program will be a statewide opportunity for mental health providers; such as psychologists, family therapists, psychiatric nurses, and social workers; as well as other individuals who work with older adults such as directors of Area Agencies on Aging, aging care managers, service coordinators, and others; to understand the psychiatric issues that can occur when an individual has a dementia diagnosis.

    Project: Mobile Technology in a Community Teaching Hospital Library: Tablets and E-books
    Awardee: Patricia Reusing, Director, Health Sciences Library, Saint Barnabas Medical Center
    Description: The primary goal of this project was to enhance the hospital staff’s knowledge of health and medical conditions by placing selected applications (“apps”) and ebooks on different types of tablet devices (iPad, iPad Mini, and Samsung Galaxy). During the course of the project, our Medical Library’s two librarians held numerous demonstrations throughout the hospital at which staff and members of the community (patients, visitors) could try out the tablets and look at the various apps and ebooks loaded on them. As medical librarians, we also learned a lot about tablets and the available content for them for our own understanding and to share our knowledge with our library users.
