Speaker:  Cindy Love, Disaster Information Management Research Center (DIMRC), National Library of Medicine (NLM)

This was a great webinar by a librarian at the U.S. National Library of Medicine.

The primary target audience was librarians, so more our speed than the information that I posted earlier this week.
  • Good info resources
  • Common sense advice to librarians in different settings
  • During Q&A, great responses to questions that a librarian might get: "Will Ebola become a pandemic?"  "What will the international security response be to the Ebola patient in Dallas?"
Best,
Lea
