@Re_search_NB Hi Kathleen, nice to see you at the Gord Guyatt talk, thanks for your question. I wonder if Library Science has a role to play going forward, never really grasped the academic side of social science but I'm working on it and interested to discuss if you are Thanks Rachel

@bergney Thank you SO MUCH for the opportunity to be part of this conversation and learn from the other panelists. Such a wealth know knowledge and experience.

Hi, Just heard from colleague at @CADTH that they are changing their name to Canadian Drugs Agency and laying off their librarians en masse. #canmdedlibs let me know if there's anything I can do to support any of you during this transition!
