Calling All Medical Librarians: Help Shape NMLM 2025!

October is just around the corner, and with it comes one of our favorite times of the year — National Medical Librarians Month (NMLM). Each October, we celebrate the vital role health information professionals play in advancing medicine, supporting research, and empowering patients and providers alike.

Since the 1800s, medical librarians have been at the heart of healthcare education and discovery. From the early days of the National Library of Medicine to today’s dynamic, tech-driven information landscape, your work continues to shape the future of health literacy and evidence-based care.

This year, we want to hear from you.

What should the theme of NMLM 2025 be?

Whether it’s a bold call to action, a celebration of innovation, or a tribute to the power of collaboration, we invite you to share your ideas. Your voice will help us spotlight the incredible impact of medical librarianship and inspire our community throughout October.

📬 Submit your theme suggestions by Friday, July 25, 2025.

If you have any questions, please contact Tomi Gunn, Sr. Manager, Community Engagement.
