One hundred fifty public librarians will be joining the Medical Library Association (MLA) annual meeting for a
public health information symposium that runs concurrent with the last day and a half of MLA ’18, including the Tuesday Silver and Gold Networking Dinner. MLA ’18 attendants can attend symposium sessions as part of their meeting registration.
The symposium, of interest to both public librarians and health sciences librarians, offers programming in the
area of health information for the public. It also provides a unique opportunity for public and health sciences librarians to network.
The symposium is organized by MLA in collaboration with the Public Library Association (PLA), the Greater Midwest
Region (GMR) of the National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NNLM), and members of the MLA Consumer and Patient Health Information Section (CAPHIS).
