Joining forces: developing a network to raise awareness of digital library resources in health care
Abstract
The National electronic Library for Health has launched an informal network, Digital Libraries Network, focused on supporting marketing and training in the health community. This article discusses the development of the Digital Libraries Network, including the rationale behind the network and the building of support mechanisms. DLnet is proving popular with over 170 librarians signing up as DLnet representatives. DLnet offers a range of benefits, including the co‐ordination of local and national activities, a clearly identifiable communication route, the sharing of best practice and avoiding duplication of effort.
