Abstract
Chances are you may never find a librarian in the operating suite, unless as a patient, but they do play a vital role in enabling the work of perioperative nurses. A perioperative nurse’s role can encompass a variety of tasks at the pre-operative, operative and post-operative stage and includes the daily use of information resources to ensure evidence-based practice (EBP) occurs. This article explores the role of health librarians in the perioperative environment and highlights resources and services that are offered to assist perioperative nurses.
