OVHLA was very concerned to hear about the CHEO Library closures, and have written a letter to senior leadership and stakeholders as a result: https://ovhla.chla-absc.ca/?p=530 1/5 https://twitter.com/CHEO/status/1338938016908369921
Many library staff across the country are offering exclusively online services during COVID-19, but their impact on research and clinical care in many instances have not changed – a library is more than a physical space 
2/5
Yes, more and more libraries are moving online but these resources cost
, and there are licenses that must be managed, negotiated and
supportprovided to staff wanting to use them 3/5
Hospital libraries provide value in many ways, including positively impacting patient care 
, clinical decision-making 
, and even assisting in meeting hospital accreditation standards
4/5
Amidst COVID-19 infodemic 
we should be investing in, not closing libraries. Info professionals are experts at searching & appraising sources of information. This goes for busy health care professionals as well as families in need of reliable, evidence-based info. 5/5
Tagging @CHEO because we haven't been on Twitter on a while and clearly missed that part
