Patrick Ellis (MLIS 1988) will be co-presenting at AccessOLA on the Canadian Virtual Health Library project which is currently working through the operational and governance components with funding from Canada Institutes for Health Research.  This will be great opportunity for folks outside the health library environment to hear about this unique Canadian initiative.

Health librarians and stakeholders have worked for many years on a vision of a Canadian Virtual Health Library  (CVHL) to link and leverage resources, services and expertise effectively so that health providers across the country  have easy access to high quality information via a bilingual interface.  For more information visit the CVHL website.
