The Sutter Medical Librarians are known for the speed that we deliver information (articles, book chapters, literature search results), and the accuracy and quality of the information provided. The Ask the Librarian online request forms are available on the MySutter intranet and One Search portal. Requests are filled according to priority (Urgent, Rush, or Normal). The libraries do not lend, buy, or borrow print books for clinical staff. However, the medical library staff in Palo Alto facilitate lending print books upon request from our small business and leadership collection. Throughout the year, medical librarians orient and educate clinicians, healthcare professionals, and inter-professional teams about library services and resources to support their research, clinical, and educational endeavors. Librarian assistance has always been rapid, accurate, thorough, and providing exactly what I requested. This is immensely helpful for patient care and coordination of care with my colleagues. I have shared information that I obtained with patients and colleagues. I am sure this service improves the quality of care and patient satisfaction. Dhara MacDermed, M.D.
