Description
Summary:<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 200%;"><span style="line-height: 200%; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt;">Clinical/adjunct faculty (also referred to as preceptors) present a unique challenge to academic health sciences libraries, often having appointments that are considered to be affiliates rather than employees as well as having access to resources via their own institution's library. This article presents the experience of the George T. Harrell Health Sciences Library, Penn State Hershey, in providing access to resources for this user group, including a targeted web presence, licensing, and management issues.</span></p>
