Introduction

Mission statement: "Bridging the gap between students and working professionals in health librarianship"

Background

In 2006, a group of UBC School of Library, Archival and Information Studies students in the Master of Library and Information Science program interested in health librarianship met to start their own CHLA/ABSC SLAIS Student Interest Group (SIG). The SIG set up a wiki to communicate with members and health librarians in the field and called it the SLAIS CHLA/ABSC pbwiki. All materials were moved in HLWIKI Canada in 2007. The SIG appointed various members to form the Executive and at a subsequent meeting wrote its mission statement: "Bridging the gap between students and working professionals in health librarianship." The SLAIS SIG reconsolidated itself in 2007-2008 and was active throughout 2010. For a review of outgoing Executives' work, see the minutes categories below.
