Librarians – the catalyst in health content curation.Chemistry of collaboration and networking Joanna Ptolomey (@chibbie Twitter) HLG 2012 – Glasgow July 2012 Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
3 main touch points today • Setting the scene for community health content curation • Who is ALISS and why is her engine and processes so important • Librarians and their contagious behaviour as a catalyst at innovation Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Part 1 – Some context for community driven health curation Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Some real life examples • GP Social Prescribing Desktop Application – Health Board • Community engagement partnership to provide community driven and other health content- public libraries, local engagement/enterprise companies, voluntary sector agencies • Assets register for self directed services in health for a local TV company Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Context for community curation Karen – wants to be in control and be able to make decisions and plans herself. Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Tsunami of information • No shortage of content but too many funnel points • Hard to see the breadth of content • Hard to harness the breadth of content • How best to curate what you need and share with others? Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Complicated for HCPs • They like QA content • Only one part of the equation • No shortage of content – but comes out from many funnel points • Political stuff goes on Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Part 2 – ALISS and the slow hunch Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012

Part 3 – over to the librarians Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Success is not random. Circumstances, working on the right thing, taking opportunity where it is presented (and occasionally a wee bit of luck). Factor in alot of failure and mistakes. Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Librarian skills • Content is flat without help – we understand finding, using, managing and sharing information. Joining up. • Innovation easy to say – hard to do. Who wants to go against the grain? • Someone has to connect info and find champions. Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Librarians – irritants in the shell Stewards and chaperones Negotiators Socialisers Curator generals Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Bun fights Politics Empire building Friendly fire Standoffs Challenging the way things are usually done Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
Librarians as a catalyst to change • Skills that are in high demand - promise less, change expectations and reset what it means to deliver • Be contagious in your behaviour towards innovation and breaking down empires, roles and how things are done • Accept the role of influencer, facilitator, advocates, confidante, sergeant major and peacemaker • Talent versus practice – stickability for learning new skills and application in practice Joanna Ptolomey HLG July 2012
