”Lack of time sounds like a cliché, but it really is an issue” : A qualitative study about meeting the information needs of nurses from the perspective of hospital librarians (English)
Abstract [en]

The aim of this study is to explore the information work of medical librarians regarding the information need of nurses and how to facilitate this in the best way. Five semi-structured interviews with medical librarians were performed to get their perspective regarding nurses information need, the information need of the librarian and their role in supporting nurses information seeking in their evidence-based practice. Then analysing the results using theory of professions and adding the concepts of cognitive authority and legitimacy. The width of nurse practices makes a general information need hard to pinpoint and with that a difficulty to have a general working solution tailored to every practise. The results further show lack of time as a major issue, ignorance of the librarian's ability to help is another, paired with an issue of reaching nurses to advertise what the library can do. Marketing of the library service could give the library an even bigger role in providing nurses with relevant new research to help in their evidence-based practice. Surveys to pinpoint information needs of separate nurse practices to tailor specific efforts, possibly paired with an investment in the library even better.
