Training the librarians to provide the information services in the accidents and disasters

One of the main and most important tasks of crisis managers in the event of unexpected events and crises is to make effective and urgent decisions based on available statistics and information. Medical librarians can also act as part of the crisis management center with their abilities and skills in searching and finding up-to-date and reliable information. If they receive the necessary training in the field of crisis and acquire the necessary skills, they can provide up-to-date and reliable information to decision-makers. Therefore, a short-term training course is necessary for librarians to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills in the field of crises and disasters.
