I am still  retiring. I have been humbled by the avalanche of good wishes from across UMB  and appreciate each and every one of them. As I\u2019ve been attempting to clean out  36 years of files and office stuff, I am constantly reminded of what a  wonderful career I have had here at UMB, taking more trips down Memory Lane  than I care to admit. I wish I could count those trips toward my step goals!<\/p>\n  <p>One truth that has emerged is that what matters  most is the people. I have had the joy of working with some amazing people  across the university, and it warms my heart to remember them. Among those  special people are the staff and faculty of the HSHSL, who have trusted me to  lead them over the years. It is an easy thing to do when you are part of a  creative and committed team dedicated to providing an information and knowledge  infrastructure for any and every endeavor at UMB. Those <em>people<\/em> are the HSHSL \u2013 not the bricks and mortar, or the books and  journals. If I have any regrets, it has been that I have not been able to stabilize  and increase the HSHSL resources budget. There is <a href=\"#03\">an article<\/a> further down about the next round of major cuts we will have to  make based on a flat resources budget that has not increased in a decade. Maybe  the next dean will have better luck with that.<\/p>\n  <p>To support the wonderful team at the HSHSL, my  husband and I have established the Tooey\/Huffman Professional Development Endowment  for Library Faculty and Staff Professional Development. A long name for a  simple concept. In order for the HSHSL faculty and staff to stay on top of our  professional game, we need to grow skills and equip the team for the  fast-evolving world of knowledge work. If you are interested in supporting the  HSHSL, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.givecampus.com\/campaigns\/28988\/donations\/new?a=5598042\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">donate  online<\/a> at the university\u2019s giving page. For information about each HSHSL fund,  please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hshsl.umaryland.edu\/about\/supporting.cfm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">our  website<\/a>.<\/p>\n  <p>I think it is going to take a long time for me to  stop referring to the HSHSL in terms of \u201cwe\u201d and \u201cus.\u201d Lots of people have  asked about my plans. I don\u2019t have plans, but I have lots of ideas and  curiosity to accompany those ideas. Travel, our family (including our amazing  granddaughter), gardening, learning, election work, sleeping in \u2013 I am only  limited by my imagination!<\/p>\n  <p>Please take good care of the HSHSL.

Priced  at only $12, the calendar will make a fantastic \u2013 and affordable \u2013 holiday gift. <\/p>\n    <p>This year\u2019s calendar was inspired by the <em>Fatal Beauty<\/em> exhibit installed in the Weise Gallery this past summer. The calendar features  a selection of stunning botanical plates from volumes in the HSHSL\u2019s Historical  Collections Pharmacy Collection.<\/p>\n    <p>For centuries, plants have been used to treat a variety of  ailments. Fatal Beauty, showcases some botanicals that, if used improperly, can  be deadly. Each month features a different fatal beauty with information on its  toxicity and pharmaceutical uses. <\/p>\n    <p>The HSHSL appreciates the help of Dr. Mordecai \u201cMordy\u201d Blaustein,  Professor Emeritus and Past-Chair of the UMSOM Department of Physiology, in the  planning and research for the calendar.

Many of these titles are  heavily used by UMB researchers. They include<\/p>\n    <ul>\n      <li><em><strong>The American Journal of Medical Genetics<\/strong><\/em>, with over 1000 uses;<\/li>\n      <li><em><strong>Pediatric Blood and Cancer<\/strong><\/em>, with over  800 uses;<\/li>\n      <li><em><strong>European Radiology<\/strong><\/em>, with  over 500 uses; and<\/li>\n      <li><em><strong>Drug Safety<\/strong><\/em>, with  over 400 uses.<\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n    <p>While  these journals are extensively used, they are also very expensive. A  subscription to&nbsp;<em>The American Journal of Medical Genetics<\/em>, for  example, costs over $26,000. This means the average cost of each full-text  article UMB researchers download is over $25. This year the HSHSL will not be  able to renew any journal with a cost-per-use of over $9.<\/p>\n    <p>These  cancellations are the result of a long-running structural deficit funding issue. While  journal prices have increased on average 7 to 10 percent a year, the HSHSL\u2019s  resources budget has remained essentially flat for over a decade. Every year  faculty librarians spend time evaluating the HSHSL\u2019s journal collection based  on data (cost-per-use) and the need to ensure a balanced collection addressing  and supporting UMB\u2019s mission. Journal subscriptions are identified for  cancellation in order to remain within budget. For the past few years, one-time  funding has been received allowing the collection to be maintained. However,  these budget constraints also mean that the HSHSL is unable to add any of the  many new subscriptions requested each year. It has also impacted the HSHSL\u2019s ability to support  new UMB programs. These flat budgets and diminishing collections will also have  an impact on accreditation reports and visits.<\/p>\n    <p>Access to articles from cancelled  journals will be lost on January 1, 2023. Individual articles from any journal  not subscribed to by the HSHSL are available through the <a name=\"_Hlk120706729\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.docdel.umaryland.edu\/portal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Request  Articles &amp; Books <\/a> service (interlibrary loan).<\/p>\n    <p>If  the HSHSL resources budget remains flat and journal costs continue to rise,  more journal cancellations will continue in the future.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"article-title\" style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">\n  <h3><a id=\"04\" name=\"04\"><\/a>New NIH Policy for Data Management and Sharing Coming Next Month!<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\">\n  <div class=\"article-text\">\n    <p>On January  25, 2023, the new NIH Data Management and Sharing Policy (NIH DMSP) will go  into effect.

The scans can then be uploaded to the  UMB Digital Archive or Internet Archive for researchers to use. This summer,  four Baltimore College of Dental Surgery (BCDS) Alumni Photo Albums were  scanned and uploaded. <\/p>\n    <p>These volumes are part of a collection of record books, including  meeting minutes, matriculation records, and grade books, held in Historical  Collections. The BCDS Alumni Photo Albums are the result of a Dean\u2019s Office  initiative to compile the available photographs of BCDS graduates from 1883 to  1916. The albums add value to the collection because they predate the school\u2019s  yearbook collection \u2013 which begins in 1901 \u2013 and provide over 20 years\u2019 worth  of BCDS graduate photographs, as well as details about the classes. <\/p>\n    <p>The first volume, dated 1883, contains photographs of the  BCDS faculty, including school founder Chapin A. Harris and dean Richard B.  Winder. It also includes beautifully hand-drawn and colored botanicals  decorating the pages. Later volumes feature artwork by graduates and identify valedictorians  and class officers \u2013 information typically recorded in yearbooks. The Digital  Archive records include a list of the names identified in each volume;  unfortunately, many of the graduates remain unidentified. <\/p>\n    <p>The photo albums offer a rare glimpse into early dental  students\u2019 lives and provide a valuable resource for genealogists, or for anyone  interested in the history of the BCDS, the UM School of Dentistry, or the  history of dentistry in Baltimore.<\/p>\n    <p>To view the albums, check out the School of  Dentistry <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.hshsl.umaryland.edu\/handle\/10713\/353\/browse?type=dateissued\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yearbooks  Collection<\/a>.  <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-title\">\n  <h3><a id=\"09\" name=\"09\"><\/a>Library Genie 2022 Survey Results<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\">\n  <div class=\"article-text\"> <a href=\"http:\/\/www2.hshsl.umaryland.edu\/newsletter\/images\/volume17_Number01\/08b.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www2.hshsl.umaryland.edu\/newsletter\/images\/volume17_Number01\/09.jpg\" alt=\"Library Genie\" width=\"549\" height=\"162\" border=\"0\"><\/a>\n    <p>During the month of October,  the Library Genie asked for your top three library wishes.

Tooey receives vaccinations\" width=\"549\" height=\"291\" border=\"0\">\n\t<p>When the first annual flu clinic took place in 2018, in  recognition of the 100th anniversary of the flu epidemic of 1918, we  never imagined being in the midst of a pandemic just a few years later. The flu  clinic continued despite the pandemic in 2020 and 2021, carefully adhering to  COVID-19 safety guidelines from UMB and the State of Maryland. This year, in  response to ever-changing health needs and vaccination requirements, the clinic  shifted focus to combat the still surging COVID-19 pandemic and to expand the vaccinations  offered.<\/p>\n\t<p>On October 20, 2022, the School of Pharmacy and the Health  Sciences and Human Services Library, in collaboration with Walgreens, provided  a wider range of vaccinations \u2212 flu, COVID-19 boosters, and pneumonia  \u2212  to over 200 UMB students, faculty, and staff. More than half of the attendees  received both a flu shot and a COVID-19 booster. As in previous years, many  vaccinations were administered by School of Pharmacy students, to help them  learn and to encourage ongoing service in their communities and at future flu  clinics.<\/p>\n\t<p>Thank you to all who attended for helping to protect  yourself and others.<\/p>\n\t<p>For more information on the fifth annual HSHSL\/SOP  sponsored flu clinic, read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.umaryland.edu\/news\/archived-news\/november-2022\/flu-shot-booster-both-on-hand-at-this-years-clinic.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Flu Shot?

We  hope it helped to de-stress from studying and tests.&nbsp; The HSHSL was delighted to see how creative students  were with the images of skulls, teeth, stethoscopes, botanicals, books, and lab  rats.
