about medli

The purpose of MEDLI is to initiate, sponsor, and contribute to educational
programs pertaining to medicine and related subjects. Keeping with this
educational goal, MEDLI strives to bring to the medical library community
continuing education seminars for both educational advancement in the
profession and Medical Library Association certification and/or
recertification.

Twice yearly general membership meetings, e-mails, and our website
keep the active medical librarian abreast of new ideas, changing roles, and
technological advances in the library field.

Membership in MEDLI is open to anyone interested in the exchange and
dissemination of medical and scientific information. Our members currently
include librarians, hospitals, library suppliers, and others interested in
libraries and medicine.

Networking of medical librarians through the regional medical library
network, interlibrary loan and educational meetings will continue to be an
important objective of the Medical and Scientific Libraries of Long Island.
