چکیده

مقدمه: حجم اطلاعات و وقت ناکافی متخصصان سلامت، حضور یک کتابدار بالینی آشنا به وظایف حرفه‌ای را در تیم درمان ضروری می‌نماید. هدف از انجام پژوهش حاضر، تعیین میزان آشنایی دانشجویان کتابداری و اطلاع‌رسانی پزشکی و کتابداران با وظایف کتابدار بالینی بود.روش بررسی: این مطالعه از نوع کاربردی بود و به روش پیمایشی- توصیفی انجام شد. جامعه آماری که متشکل از دانشجویان مقطع کارشناسی رشته کتابداری و کتابداران شاغل در دانشگاه علوم پزشکی اصفهان بود، به روش سرشماری انتخاب شد. داده‌ها به وسیله پرسش‌نامه محقق ساخته جمع‌آوری گردید و سپس با استفاده از آمار توصیفی و استنباطی مورد تجزیه و تحلیل قرار گرفت.یافته‌ها: دانشجویان و کتابداران دانشگاه علوم پزشکی اصفهان آشنایی به نسبت خوبی با وظایف کتابدار بالینی داشتند. ارتباط معنی‌داری بین نمره آشنایی کتابداران در سه محور مورد بررسی (اهداف، وظایف و کارکردها) با رشته تحصیلی و میزان سابقه کاری مشاهده نشد. همچنین، فقط در مؤلفه جستجو و پژوهش تفاوت معنی‌داری بین نمره آشنایی دانشجویان و کتابداران وجود داشت.نتیجه‌گیری: با توجه به آشنایی نسبی نظری دانشجویان و کتابداران با مهارت‌های شغلی یک کتابدار بالینی، امکان اجرای عملی این مهارت‌ها در محیط بالینی توسط دانشجویان این رشته وجود دارد.
