Information Alliance

Counterpart Projects: Health Sciences

Health Sciences librarians from the three IRIS libraries have met at several Information Alliance meetings. The administrative placement of the libraries is different in each organization. Vanderbilt's library is administratively separate, while Kentucky's reports to the Main Library. Tennessee's Preston Medical Library in Knoxville is officially connected to the Medical School located in Memphis. Recent organizational changes at Tennessee have resulted in a consolidation of the Knoxville main campus and the Medical School. A Health Sciences Librarian at the UT Libraries serves UT’s College of Nursing and related programs. Health science librarians have discussed numerous issues of mutual interest and provide interlibrary services to one another.
