Librarians Association of the University of California - LAUC

The UC Davis School of Medicine was proposing curriculum change that would have resulted in a reduction in curricular time for course content delivered by UC Davis Library (the “Library”). Since the Library continually monitors the curriculum, we seized this opportunity to connect with education leaders and re-envision Library content on evidence-based practice (“EBP”) at an even more developmentally appropriate place, earlier in the curriculum. Resultantly, we collaborated on a teaching session focusing on specialized information resources and the “Ask” and “Acquire” components of the EBP framework early in this new longitudinal thread on population health and evidence-based practice.
