As vital team partners, we contribute our expertise in knowledge management and discovery to improving health care, enhancing research, and advancing the education of health care providers. Our history of collaboration and strong service ethic is recognized as the keystone for such teamwork. Having our 2007 annual meeting in the keystone state, Pennsylvania, and in Philadelphia, MLA’s founding city and site of the Association’s first annual meeting in May 1898, provides us with a unique opportunity to revisit our founding premises and values. This allows us not only to reclaim our foundations but also to forge new frontiers. MLA and its members can indeed shape the future by responsibly providing "quality information for improved health."
