Background: This institution’s medical school opened in 1972 on its original campus. Since then, the institution has grown to a multi-state health care system. It was decided to open a branch of the existing medical school, including a library, on another campus in a different state to create a national medical school. The first class was admitted and began classes in July 2017. This inaugural class will graduate this year, May 2021.
Description: This poster will describe librarian involvement and services provided to the medical students from creating a medical school library space to working with students in several ways including providing reference services, literature searching and research assistance, mentorship for selectives and instruction during the EBM block of medical school.
Conclusion: Outcomes are to provide a foundation for life long library use as students complete medical school and go on to their residencies, fellowships and careers.
