The McGoogan Health Sciences Library and its pathway partners are holding a panel discussion on Wednesday, April 30, from 1–2 p.m. CDT titled “Innovating Together: McGoogan Library & UNMC Pathway Programs Collaborations.” The event will take place online via Zoom; registration is required.
UNMC and Nebraska Medicine colleagues are encouraged to attend and learn how the library’s collaborative work has supported health care students. UNMC’s pathway programs focus on building a health care workforce that is dedicated to improving patient care and promoting health equity.
When explaining the importance of partnerships between the library and pathway programs, Kiara Comfort, a library faculty facilitator for the event, said, “These partnerships are essential because they support the development of future health care professionals and researchers.”
Comfort added, “Through classes and programs, they encourage active engagement and provide a pathway to lifelong learning.”
