A whiteboard with the weekly question written in blue - do you prefer Android/Apple/Who cares?/omg Apple is a cult.
Here's our latest #medlibs question outside the #library doors.
Last week our users decided that Ross and Rachel were on a break but his actions were still morally wrong.

Wonder if any #MedLibs at hospitals are getting asked about these? (Though one imagines that most clinician-researchers are working with either a University or pharma company)

Tagging #medlibs because this question/concern plagued the Vision 2048 task force and made me so disheartened by the calls for even more education and credentialing that I nearly quit the group.
From what I'm seeing re: desire to use AI, I feel like things are going to get worse.
If the only jobs become mid-career and management because everyone has decided there isn't enough bandwidth to train early-career folks... where do y'all think mid-career candidates will come from exactly?

One of my favourite #medlibs mornings today as we have a therapy dog visiting the wellbeing area in the #library for staff and students to meet. #librarylife
Our annual library survey is out. My favourite reply so far is that they don't use the library because eBooks, Google and ChatGPT have all the answers they need, but that is also full of misspellings and best of all spells technology wrong. #medlibs #librarylife
A small book is held open, with part of a hand shown holding the book in place. A white page has multiple dates stamped on it.
I work in a medical library, and recently this has been one of our most issued books. We have no idea why. You can see from the date stamps it first went out in 2010. It is not a medical or educational text. Any guesses? #medlibs
