Embedded librarianship supporting medical and health science educators’ skills development: case report

The authors present a case describing the role and activities of an embedded medical librarian in a professional development program designed to strengthen medical and health science educators' clinical teaching skills. The embedded librarian supported the program curriculum by identifying and sharing resources on educational practices and contributing to curricular content and methods. The program resulted in faculty engagement with the librarian and perceptions of enhanced quality and efficiency in program development. This project highlights that librarians' expertise makes them valuable collaborators and aligns with increasing interprofessional collaborations including librarians in medical and health education.
