  • Title: Expanding the DOCLINE network to include nonmedical libraries in the state of Nevada.
    Author: Potter LA, Zenan JS.
    Journal: Bull Med Libr Assoc; 1993 Jan; 81(1):54-5. PubMed ID: 8428190.
    Abstract:
    Most libraries cannot meet patron demands for biomedical information using only their in-house collections. Consequently, many types of libraries request biomedical information through interlibrary loan, and these include not only academic health sciences libraries, hospital and special libraries, but also general libraries. In Nevada, with its small population spread over a large geographic area, it has become critical to develop a statewide network for sharing biomedical information. As the state resource library, the Savitt Medical Library launched an effort to establish a network, via DOCLINE, of all Nevada libraries that have health-related collections. The process of convincing academic and community college libraries to join DOCLINE and the resulting benefits of improved resource sharing and cooperative collection development are discussed.
