In this issue, we have great articles by our various MCMLA committees. The Education Committee writes a terrific how-to article on applying for and winning professional development funding, something we all need in this era of fiscal restraint. From the Library Advocacy Committee we learn of the need for information literacy among graduate nursing students, particularly given today‘s emphasis on Evidence-Based Practice. And the research committee continues its popular Research Round-up column with suggestions for thinking about creative research — and submitting it — for the next MCMLA annual meeting.
