ANCHASL Spring 2012 Meeting and Continuing Education 
April 20, 2012 - 9:00 am to 3:30 pm

CE - Peeling the Onion (Clinical Informatics)
Instructor: PJ Grier, Outreach/Access Coordinator, NN/LM SE/A
CE Hours: 4

Course Description:
Clinical informatics is often described as the "intersection of computer science, health sciences and information science." The objective is twofold. First, it will broadly explore this busy, growing intersection from several vantage points.  And two, it will illustrate the "front-facing" skills that librarians, a.k.a information scientists, can bring to the field of clinical informatics and healthcare information technology.  The demand for informaticians is expected to outstrip supply by 2015 because of federal healthcare reform initiatives launched, starting in 2004.  As a result, workforce development programs are now in place to help mitigate this shortage with some programs of interest to librarians.

Registration fee: $55 Members, $70 Non-members, $20 Student Members, $25 Student Non-members. Includes box lunch. Please make your lunch choice below.

Registration deadline: April 15, 2012

The registration form is up and ready at http://www.acteva.com/booking.cfm?bevaid=229313.   Directions, parking info and suggested hotels can be found on the form.

Hope to see you all there!

Hello,

Recently I contacted you to request your participation in a unique research study on academic health sciences reference librarians' roles involvement with the NIH Public Access Policy. I am writing to encourage you to respond as soon as possible.

My name is Dave Ghamandi and I am a master's student in library science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.  The purpose of my research is to determine academic health sciences reference librarians' knowledge of, attitudes toward, and behaviors related to the NIH Public Access Policy and to describe if and how they are responding to the Research Works Act.

If you are an academic health sciences librarian whose job responsibilities include reference, instruction, and/or liaison work you may participate in the study by completing a web-based survey.  The survey, which will ask you questions related to your job and the NIH Public Access Policy, should take 10 minutes of your time and is voluntary. You may stop taking the survey at any time, and you may skip any question for any reason.  You will not receive any direct benefit from being in this research study. A possible risk of participating in this study is embarrassment if your identity and responses became public; as with all research, there may be other unknown or uncommon risks.  You should report any discomfort to the researcher.  All possible measures have been taken to protect the confidentiality of your answers.

Your individual responses will be kept strictly confidential.  I will report only summaries of the aggregated data from responses to the multiple-choice questions.  This means that your responses will be combined with all of the other responses received and will not be able to be identified as yours. Responses to the open-ended questions will be stripped of any personally identifiable information before being reported.  Deductive disclosure which is the discerning of an individual respondent's identity and responses through the use of known characteristics of that individual is also possible but unlikely.

If you have any questions regarding this survey, you may contact me (Dave Ghamandi, the Principal Investigator) via e-mail at ghamandi at email.unc.edu or by phone (919.966.0950).  Dr. Joanne Marshall is my faculty advisor for this research project and may be contacted at marshall at ils.unc.edu or by phone (919.843.7883).
All research on human volunteers is reviewed by a committee that works to protect your rights and welfare. If you have any questions or concerns regarding your rights as a research subject you may contact, anonymously if you wish, the Institutional Review Board at (919) 966-3113 or via email at IRB_subjects at unc.edu with study number 104197.

By clicking here<https://uncodum.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_ahpf46NIoDWNGcI> [https://uncodum.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_ahpf46NIoDWNGcI] and completing the survey, you agree to be a participant in this study.

Thank you,
Dave Ghamandi
