Abstract

Clinical librarians support research and patient care for clinicians in both inpatient andoutpatient settings, and often work directly with patients and families. These populations arecomposed of diverse individuals and require strategies that acknowledge this diversity, as well asthose that ensure support is equitable and inclusive. As organizations such as the American MedicalAssociation and the American Nurses Association promote diversification in the workforce, andhospitals continue to treat COVID-19 and other conditions that disproportionately affect Blacks andLatinos, it is inevitable that clinical librarians will continue to serve diverse populations.
