School of Medicine CBIL librarian: an educational informationist model

Abstract

The Computer‐Based Instruction Lab (CBIL) librarian works with instructional faculty in the School of Medicine (SOM) to identify and integrate computer‐based instruction into the curricula and to coordinate the informatics curriculum throughout the years of the medical student educational program. Because the CBIL librarian teaches informatics and grades papers, is resident within the building where instruction of medical students occurs, and because her salary is paid by the SOM, she is considered a part of the SOM instructional team and serves as a model of an educational informationist.
