Breakthroughs in genetic analysis technologies are presenting healthcare providers with new opportunities to diagnose disorders and customize clinical treatment based on the genetic structure of individual patients. In the hospital setting, access to genomic medicine information resources, clinical guidelines, and continuing education will be critical in the near future. This poster reviews the literature and presents the results of a hospital librarian survey on current and anticipated genomic medicine information needs and services for clinicians in hospitals. Roles and opportunities for hospital librarians to support evidence-based practice in this new field are discussed.<\/p>\n<p>Download the full-size PDF of Kathryn J.
