The hospital library network has to train hospital librarians. The Council of Hospital Libraries in Shizuoka Prefecture, a regional network, has training meetings twice a year. The regional hospital library network has recently started another training program for hospital librarians. In order to discuss and study the many things which have to be dealt with in their routine work, the librarians of the Hamamatsu University School of Medicine and hospital librarians in Hamamatsu have held other bimonthly meetings, “training of hospital librarians in Hamamatsu”, since February of 1988. The latter training sessions have been very useful for both the university librarians and the hospital librarians. A report of the results of the sessions appeared in the bulletin of the Council of Hospital Libraries in Shizuoka Prefecture, “Booktruck”, Good connections have been established because of such sessions, and regional network activities have been furthered. Hospital librarians in central and eastern Shizuoka Prefecture have also established independent training sessions. In order to raise quality of library services, it is useful to develop the educational system for hospital librarians by allowing them to meet, discuss and study together the problems they confront in their routine work.
