Thomson Reuters responded with a suite of databases including the Web of Science. Elsevier responded with their Scopus database. After an extended trial of Scopus and several webinars and feedback sessions regarding both products, Thomson's Web of Science was selected as the best solution going forward.  http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=5252 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 15:39:05 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=5241 A trial of Science Translational Medicine is available through December 23rd.  Science Translational Medicine is a weekly journal devoted to original research and other issues of strong interest to the translational medicine community. Translational medicine topics suitable for submission include any original research findings, discussions or analyses that move the field closer to the goal of improving human health, or the diagnosis and treatment of disease. We would like your feedback about this journal.  Please send comments to ejournals@osumc.edu. http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=5241 Fri, 13 Nov 2009 13:45:01 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=5240 "… the global reach of our educational programming made possible through the innovative technologies ... has been an unexpected windfall." The OSU Center for Knowledge Management and its partner John A. Prior Health Sciences Library (Prior) have once again been recognized as leaders in developing innovative approaches to meet the growing demand for new knowledge-based solutions, information services and technology support. At the annual meeting of its Midwest Chapter, the Medical Library Association presented the Prior with the 2009 Jean Williams Sayre Innovation Award for its long-standing commitment to advancing the delivery of continuing medical educational (CME) programming to global audiences. Staffing expertise and resources from the Prior has enabled the OSU Medical Center to transition from traditional CME program delivery towards Internet-based access and program management. In 2001, Prior staff designed, built, and has since supported, an integrated online system enabling the delivery of weekly educational programming and management of CME business and operational practices. Since its formal launch nearly eight years ago, the number of online subscribers to Ohio State's single-point, e-CME portal has grown from a modest 2,200 to a current subscriber base of over 29,000 across the US and 122 countries worldwide. One service provided via the e-CME portal centers on Internet Point of Care (PoC) CME. PoC CME is self-directed, online learning by physicians on topics relevant to their clinical practice. While many libraries link to PoC instructions and resources from within their library Web sites, the Prior group built an online PoC management system into the e-CME portal, where physicians are already going for CME information. This system includes direct links to evidence-based and/or peer-reviewed resources recommended by librarians and a PoC credit tracking tool. The e-CME solution also couples the delivery of live and archived video-based CME presentations with functionality that allows subscribers to complete program evaluations and post-tests, register and pay for conferences, track their CME activities and earned credits and, generate certificates of completion on-demand. An administrative view of these Web tools allows CME administrators to track participant activities and viewing patterns, as well as compile and run statistics for CME accreditation purposes. With approximately 13,000 active physicians and nearly 10,000 healthcare professionals comprising the largest subset of its online user community, more than 10,000 CME credits have been issued to participants completing the online post-test and 103,000 credits issued to group participants of the live Webcast or video-on-demand resources. Comprising 12% of its current subscriber base is the 1,384 viewers from 122 foreign countries who have discovered the Prior’s e-CME programming through simple Internet searches. Of curious interest are the 145 consumers and 170 patients who registered to watch the e-CME videos. In supporting their nomination, Chip Souba, MD, dean of medicine and vice president for health sciences at OSU, wrote "… the global reach of our educational programming, made possible through the innovative technologies the Prior staff brought to bear on this effort, has been an unexpected windfall. The outstanding number of archived programs, subscribers and international audiences referenced in this nomination are a testament to the value that such innovative approaches have brought to advancing our education and outreach mission. Clearly, such capabilities are of tremendous value to the OSU Medical Center and the US and international audience it reaches." --- http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=5240 Fri, 13 Nov 2009 00:00:00 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=5207 PubMed looks a lot different as of October 27, 2009.

The grant is one of the largest ever received by Ohio State. The Ohio State University Center for Clinical and Translational Science will provide support services to Ohio State researchers while fostering collaboration with other medical centers that are grant recipients. “By facilitating collaborations among university medical centers, this NIH grant assures swift and meaningful advances in patient care,” said Ohio State University President E. Gordon Gee. “The approach will accelerate research outcomes at Ohio State and elsewhere, and I am delighted that we are a part of this consortium.” Under the direction of Dr. Rebecca Jackson, professor of internal medicine, an endocrinologist and associate dean for clinical research, the center will leverage expertise from 16 colleges at Ohio State, along with scientists and clinicians at The Ohio State University Medical Center and Nationwide Children’s Hospital. The grant award provides administrative support needed to develop improved methods for analyzing research data and managing clinical trials, allowing for greater community outreach, and creating partnerships in central Ohio and beyond. “With this award, we are joining a consortium of elite medical centers in developing innovative methods and approaches to research that bring proven treatments more quickly to patients,” said Dr. Wiley “Chip” Souba Jr., dean of Ohio State’s College of Medicine and interim senior vice president and executive dean for Health Sciences and CEO of the Medical Center. “This award speaks to the quality of our research, training programs, interdisciplinary collaboration, and partnerships with public and private organizations.” By engaging faculty and staff from across Ohio State, the center is creating a collaborative network focusing on science, education, research design and implementation. Additional emphasis is being placed on training the next generation of researchers by utilizing innovative educational initiatives to build their clinical and translational skills, while supporting their career development. “The opportunities provided by the CTSA are enormously exciting for Ohio State investigators as well as the community,” said Jackson. “This grant allows us to develop and refine educational and research approaches in clinical and translational science to enhance the rapid translation of new information to improve human health." Ohio State is one of 30 medical centers across the country receiving the NIH grant targeted to strengthening clinical and translational science that will lead to better patient care. Administered by the National Center for Research Resources, a component of the NIH, the Clinical and Translational Science Award program funds diverse and far-reaching approaches related to all aspects of research. The CTSA award marks the second major grant received by Ohio State in the past two weeks. A $24.9 million grant through the Ohio Research Scholars Program is earmarked for biomedical imaging projects and represents a partnership among Ohio State, Case Western Reserve University and Wright State University. # # # http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=3996 Thu, 29 May 2008 00:00:00 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=3945 NEW: Multilingual MedlinePlus--Consumer Health Information As of May 7, 2008, MedlinePlus® has a multilingual feature, providing access to high quality health information. This new service benefits people who prefer to read consumer health information in their native language. It also helps information professionals and health care providers who serve them. The new collection contains over 2,500 links to information in more than 40 languages and covers nearly 250 Health Topics. Users can navigate the new collection of health information in multiple languages either by language or by topic. A page listing all of the languages covered will be linked from the bottom of the MedlinePlus homepage. In addition, a languages box will display on the English Health Topic pages. An interactive world map teaches users about the number of people who speak nine of the languages in the MedlinePlus collection. The languages - Arabic, Chinese, French, Korean, Russian, Somali, Spanish, Tagalong and Vietnamese - are among those most frequently spoken at home in the United States other than English, according to the U.S. census. The MedlinePlus collection of health information in multiple languages is not meant to be comprehensive. Instead, as with our English and Spanish collections, MedlinePlus staff selects materials according to our quality guidelines (quality guidelines specific to the new collection are available at: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/languages/criteria.html http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=3945 Wed, 07 May 2008 15:13:37 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=3853 Beginning April 7, researchers receiving grant money from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) must submit copies of their resulting research papers to PubMed Central.

One can reduce the chances of a laptop theft by: - Not leaving your laptop unsecured in study areas. - Seriously consider a lockdown device, such as one of Kensington's MicroSavers that you can use to physically secure your laptop almost anywhere. Such devices, while by no means foolproof, can deter many thefts. - Do not leave your laptop in an unattended vehicle. If it must be left in a vehicle, it should not be in plain sight - lock it in the trunk. - A locked office door is not always an assurance of physical security. If you will be away from your office for an extended period, do not leave your laptop unsecured - lock it in a filing cabinet, use a lockdown device, or store it in an office that will be attended. http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=3426 Fri, 14 Sep 2007 16:13:29 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=3348 Pay to Print Policy Pay to Print FAQ Starting in the Fall Quarter 2007 the Prior Health Sciences Library implemented printing fees.

"Teamwork is what makes the impossible possible ..." stressed senior vice president and Medical Center CEO Fred Sanfilippo during his annual address. For Sanfilippo, also senior vice president and executive dean of health sciences at Ohio State, the Medical Center’s wide-ranging success isn’t necessarily a surprise since he predicted upon his arrival that culture shifts and leadership training would foster an institutional commitment to excellence. “If you set your sights high, develop your leaders, nurture your team and focus on strategic goals, you can meet and even exceed expectations,” he said. Delivering his seventh State of the Medical Center address on Jan. 23, Sanfilippo looked ahead to another challenging year marked by an emphasis on people, technology and finances and reflected on the past six years of Medical Center performance. “If you look at all we have accomplished, you’ll see that change is important, change can happen and, often, change is good. Now is the time not just to continue our momentum, but to accelerate it,” he said. “We can settle for nothing less when we have a mission and vision as bold as ours, to create the future of medicine and improve people’s lives through personalized health care.” The hallmark of the past year, Sanfilippo said, was a ranking based not on reputation or compliance measures, but on quality and safety outcomes. Ohio State’s Medical Center was ranked in the top five academic medical centers nationally in quality and accountability measurements of patient care by the University HealthSystem Consortium, a designation Sanfilippo termed “a tremendous statement about the impact of faculty and staff” and “a great source of pride.” Among other achievements pointing to consistent upward trends included the health system’s growth in local market share and a 32 percent growth in patient admissions since Fiscal Year 2000, a new high of $188.7 million in external research support in 2006 – a 12 percent increase over the previous year – and the development of 10 new fellowship programs. Other rankings also remain important, including the College of Medicine’s U.S. News & World Report ranking showing the largest one-year and five-year jump in the country; OSU Physicians’ rating by Anthem as best in clinical quality performance in Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky in 2006; the health system’s status as the only adult hospital in central Ohio named among the Leapfrog Group’s national list of top hospitals for quality and safety; a second consecutive top-20 hospital ranking in number of top programs by U.S. News & World Report; and the seventh consecutive year as a “Most Wired” health system. The strategic planning that has been a guide to date will serve as a framework for the future, as well. Though implementation of the first phase of the master space plan will bring the most visible changes to the Medical Center, what’s happening inside the new structures will be the most vital, Sanfilippo said. Three components of the strategic plan will emphasize building and fostering a talent base of people, leveraging current strengths under a technology plan that will enable programs and people to function more effectively, and setting robust financial targets for the next five years to provide resources for continued growth. “A two-fold increase in revenues and consistent positive operating margins for the past four years have been essential in allowing us to grow our programs and reach our goals. The focus of the next five years will be maintaining a strong operating margin for reinvestment purposes, ensuring steady cash flow and protecting the university’s debt position. We’re already ahead of this year’s targets,” he said. Outside, the Medical Center will continue forward movement on the first phase of its facilities plan, which encompasses a new cancer hospital, critical care tower, diagnostic and testing core, faculty offices and three parking decks. The plan also includes a new digestive health center set to open this year, and two new patient floors under construction atop the Ross Heart Hospital. Central to patient care, research and educational activities will be the six signature programs – cancer, critical care, heart, imaging, neurosciences and transplantation – serving as the foundation for interdisciplinary program growth across the entire Medical Center. The signature programs’ most recent developments account for at least 40 recent faculty and scientist recruitments, dozens of new research initiatives and tens of millions of dollars in new grant support, most resulting from collaboration across disciplines. “As research, education and patient care are becoming increasingly interdisciplinary, teamwork becomes more critical to be successful and innovative,” Sanfilippo said. “Teamwork is what makes the impossible possible and what makes the possible happen.” # # # Watch a video of the State of the Medical Center presentation: Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=3021 Wed, 24 Jan 2007 00:00:00 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=2820 About images.MD   After a successful trial earlier this year, the Prior Health Sciences Library has received special funding to subscribe to this database of more than 50,000 medical images.  Images.MD is available to all OSU faculty, staff, and students (Columbus campus and OARDC).  The database is available on campus and remotely via the proxy server.

The program, called Project Medical Education, is sponsored by the Ohio State University Medical Center. Associate Dean, Dr. Daniel Clinchot, describes the clinical testing process that OSU medical students go through. Upon their “admission” to the program, participants will don white coats and get an in-depth look at the work taking place in research labs, a robotic surgery training facility, a clinical trial session and a clinic providing free primary care services for Hispanics. Reporters are welcome to attend portions of the program on either Tuesday or Wednesday (Aug. 1 and 2). To make arrangements, call the media relations office at 293-3737. Other highlights from the program include an interactive tour of the Clinical Skills Education and Assessment Center, where participants will attempt the same clinical simulations used in training OSU medical students and residents, including phlebotomy, endoscopy, laparoscopic surgery and suturing procedures. Clinical lab manager, Mike Rubin, explains the many uses of the human patient simulator to the PME attendees. One of the major issues OSU administrators will address is the high cost involved with obtaining a medical education. “The average debt for medical students graduating from OSU is roughly $120,000,” said Dr. Fred Sanfilippo, senior vice president and executive dean for health sciences, dean of the College of Medicine and CEO of OSU Medical Center. “This level of debt is causing many of the best and brightest students to think twice about medicine as a career and look into other areas.” This level of debt marks an increase of $35,300 since 2001. # # # http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=2731 Fri, 28 Jul 2006 00:00:00 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=2703 The Ohio State University College of Medicine has been awarded full-accreditation by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) for continuing to meet nationally-approved standards for the education of students. In order to receive full-accreditation status, the College of Medicine was required to conduct a two-year self study, including an independent student-led institutional study, prior to the four-day site visit by the LCME survey team in late January. Dr. Judith Westman, Associate Dean for Medical Education, who led the accreditation effort at the College of Medicine said the biggest benefit of going through the accreditation process is conducting the two-year self study. “We had to look at ourselves with a magnifying glass and say what can we be doing better? Before the site team came, we were working on some of the places we identified,” Westman said. Composed of basic science and clinical educators and practitioners, the survey team investigated five areas: institutional setting, educational program for the M.D. degree, medical students, faculty, and educational resources. The LCME identified nine institutional strengths ranging from the clinical skills education facilities and top-tier research opportunities for medical students to the faculty commitment to student teaching and learning. The College of Medicine was also praised for its chronic care management student rotation, educational leadership, advanced technology services and medical student initiative to promote professionalism throughout the medical center. “The accreditation confirms that we have an outstanding educational offering for our students, that the faculty is fully committed to educational objectives and that the university and college leadership show strong support for providing an outstanding experience for our students,” said Dr. Paul Weber, Vice Dean for Education and Associate Vice President for Health Sciences Education. “This all results in superb training of our students to help them perform at the highest level once they become physicians and physician-scientists.” Areas to strengthen included educational objectives, curriculum management, student indebtedness, diversity of faculty and student mentorship and academic counseling. Based on the LCME report, the College of Medicine will not have to undergo another review until 2014, the usual eight-year time period of full-accreditation. The College of Medicine is one of 125 fully accredited programs leading to an M.D. degree by the LCME. Full-accreditation is required for all schools that receive federal grants for medical education and participate in federal loans programs. Most state boards of licensure require that U.S. medical schools be accredited by the LCME, as a condition for licensure of their graduates. The LCME is a nationally recognized accrediting authority for medical education programs leading to the M.D. degree in U.S. and Canadian medical schools. The committee is sponsored by the Association of American Medical Colleges and the American Medical Association. http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=2703 Mon, 26 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=2650 COLUMBUS, Ohio – A collection of photographs, correspondence, news clippings and other material from the early work and life of the late Dr. William G.

The exhibit will be in Prior Health Sciences Library on the Ohio State University Medical Center campus, 367 W. 10th Ave. The exhibit on the 5th floor at the Medical Heritage Center is free and open to the public from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. “Atoms for Peace” contains portions of several fine art lithographs created for the General Dynamics Corp. in the 1950s and 1960s. The prints depict Nitsche’s interpretations of nuclear energy uses and modern technology and were used to promote nuclear energy in foreign countries, according to the National Atomic Museum. Nitsche’s globetrotting career spans nearly 60 years. His historic career with General Dynamics Corp. began in 1953, when he was commissioned to design three sets of publicity posters. Nitsche, a Modernist, used a plain-colored background overlaid with blocks of bright color or spatters of color, interspersed with images of both modern technology and the natural world for the work in “Atoms for Peace.” # # # http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=2606 Thu, 27 Apr 2006 00:00:00 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=2347 Major Gift From OSU Trustee Chairman Announced at Campaign Kick Off COLUMBUS, Ohio – An ambitious campaign to raise $500 million to advance the research, patient care and medical education mission of The Ohio State University Medical Center was unveiled Wednesday (11/2). Having been a part of university-wide fund drives in the past, this campaign marks the first time the Medical Center has initiated its own fund-raising program seeking philanthropic involvement from the community. The campaign, “The Power to Change Lives,” will run through 2010 and make possible across-the-board initiatives at the Medical Center and enable the institution to maintain its position as a strong community asset and respected international health care leader, according to Dr. Fred Sanfilippo, senior vice president and executive dean for health sciences, dean of Ohio State’s College of Medicine and CEO of OSU Medical Center. As part of the campaign announcement, Daniel M. Slane, chairman of The Ohio State University Board of Trustees, made a pledge of $10 million to support the university, with the majority of the gift designated for the Medical Center. Other beneficiaries of the gift are the Moritz College of Law and the University Libraries. "I have seen, firsthand, the amazing research developments occurring at Ohio State that will dramatically impact the lives of thousands of people. I am also eternally grateful to Dr. Manuel Tzagournis, the former head of the Medical Center, for saving my life in 1999," said Slane. Ohio State University President Karen A. Holbrook said, “Dan has been a faithful and long-time friend of Ohio State. We have greatly benefited from his talents and expertise on the Board. I am enormously thankful for his devotion to the university. “Dan's very generous gift is a testament to his dedication to keeping Ohio State in the forefront of scientific and academic achievement. It is an amazing legacy from someone who has been selflessly dedicated to the students, faculty and researchers of Ohio State. We have been very fortunate to know him.” “With the support of a great faculty, staff and trustees, and by working hand-in-hand with valued partners in public and private enterprise, OSU Medical Center has tremendous momentum,” said Sanfilippo, “and we’re making great strides toward becoming one of the nation’s top academic medical centers. “Whether it’s being consistently ranked by a national magazine as one of the ‘Best Hospitals in America,’ or being one of the first institutions in the country to earn the designation of comprehensive cancer center, we have fulfilled many significant goals over the years, but we also feel we are at the cusp of even bigger accomplishments and breakthroughs,” added Sanfilippo. With hospitals across the country, including OSU Medical Center, working with tighter margins and declining reimbursements, the Power to Change Lives campaign will provide the Medical Center with the means to push to the forefront more patient-oriented programs in addition to important research and education initiatives. “We’re very focused on projects that have the potential of improving the health of people in Columbus and throughout the world,” said Sanfilippo. Dr. David E. Schuller, senior executive director of the Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute and deputy director of the OSU Comprehensive Cancer Center, is the medical director of the Power to Change Lives campaign and will support fund-raising efforts across all disciplines and areas of the Medical Center. “By many standards, OSU Medical Center already is an international leader with a remarkable record of precedent-setting research, education and clinical care,” said Schuller. “But we have the opportunity to achieve much more with the help of our friends and supporters around the country.” The Ohio State University’s academic medical center includes the College of Medicine, OSU Physicians and the OSU Health System, comprising University Hospital, James Cancer Hospital, University Hospital East, OSU Harding, Ross Heart Hospital and a network of community care sites. OSU Physicians, the practice plan of the OSU Medical Center, is composed of regular faculty in the College of Medicine who provide high-quality and coordinated healthcare to Medical Center patients. ### http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=2347 Wed, 02 Nov 2005 00:00:00 EST http://library.med.ohio-state.edu/article.cfm?ID=2336 Access to web-based email (OSUMC and OSU Webmail) as well as curriculum materials (Carmen and WebCT) has been restricted on all the library's public workstations. This includes all available hardwired workstations outside of the computer lab. The primary purpose of the library's public computers is to provide researchers access to library databases and electronic journals and texts. The increasing use of these computers for accessing email and curriculum resources has severely limited the number of workstations available to library customers. 85 workstations are available in the computer lab to support email and curriculum needs of students, faculty, and staff.

Consequently, OhioLINK is facing an anticipated annual shortfall of more than $500,000 to more than $1 million. OhioLINK funds are spent in combination with library funds in order to provide a wide array of resources, however library budgets across the state are also facing limitations. Some of the OhioLINK and library resources you currently use are being eliminated and others may no longer be available in the future. In addition, there will be no new funds to purchase new content OhioLINK users need and want to support their research.
