Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion - an ongoing commitment
Allina Health Library Services is committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion within our organization and the communities we serve. We recognize that libraries have a responsibility to challenge systemic oppression and promote social justice in our society and within healthcare. As a part of that work, we continue to build our collections and curate resources with health equity in mind. We are excited to announce that in addition to our existing Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging resource guide, we are adding a Health Equity page to several of our existing Subject Guides linked from our homepage. Check out our Anesthesia Health Equity page where we’ve shared relevant professional statements, articles and videos. We plan to add similar sections on our other pages and would love your help. Please let us know if you have suggestions by emailing us at library@allina.com We hope these resources will help inform health equity-basedpractices across Allina Health.
Introducing Proximity Searching in PubMed
Have you ever searched PubMed where keywords or phrases just weren’t cutting it? Now you can search for multiple terms appearing in any order with a specified distance of one another in the Title and/or Abstract fields. For example, to try a search in PubMed for citations where the terms “neck” and “pain” appear with no more than two words between them in the Title/Abstract search field, search:
“neck pain”[Title/Abstract:~2]. Search results will include neck pain, neck-related pain, neck-back pain, neck and back pain, neck/shoulder pain, neck and shoulder pain, pain in neck, neck muscle pain and more.
Did you know The British Medical Journal (BMJ) publishes a special Christmas issue every year. This issue features a collection of light-hearted and humorous articles and original research papers. The Christmas issue is known for its unconventional and entertaining content, covering a wide range of topics, from the science of Christmas to the health benefits of holiday traditions. The Christmas issue comes out right in time for Christmas, so be sure to watch out for this year's issue!
