  • La biblioteca de hospital en Portugal: la visión de los bibliotecarios
    Publication . Saraiva, Rosa Maria Pereira; Arévalo, Julio Alonso; Lopes, Carlos
    The purpose of the study was to identify the professional perspective of hospital libraries and librarians in Portugal and their future projection. A qualitative non-experimental descriptive study was conducted of a sample of 13 professionals related to / acquainted with the work of hospital libraries. The sample was intended to cover the entire country from north to south, so that the results obtained would be representative of Portuguese reality. Results show that professionals from health libraries in Portugal consider that no specific professional training is available for this field, which is characterized by very particular features unique to this library type. They also think that health professionals working at libraries should be incorporated into the clinical and research teams of their institutions. On the other hand, and given the current importance of evidence-based medicine, it is necessary to develop new roles to be undertaken by librarians. They also consider that librarians should accept the challenges, invest time and energy in permanent skill acquisition and update, and strengthen their role at their institutions, thus justifying the added value of the profession.

    Publication . Saraiva, Rosa; Frías, José Antonio; Lopes, Carlos
    RESUMEN: Se presentan los resultados de un estudio sobre las opiniones, necesidades e intereses de los usuarios de las bibliotecas hospitalarias de la zona centro de Portugal. Esta investigación se llevó a cabo con la finalidad de conocer si los recursos y servicios de las bibliotecas de los hospitales contribuyen a la calidad de los cuidados prestados a los pacientes, a la práctica de la investigación y a la formación continua de los profesionales. Para ello se llevó a cabo una encuesta a 121 usuarios de las bibliotecas de siete hospitales de la zona centro de Portugal. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto las fortalezas y debilidades de los servicios bibliotecarios, a menudo poco conocidos, y cuya valoración varía dependiendo del tipo de usuario y de las iniciativas desarrolladas por las propias bibliotecas
