An early reminder about the upcoming LCAOM committee meeting in Asheville NC on
November 3rd.  Please note it is an evening meeting (6:30-9:30).  Telephone
conferencing was invaluable in Albuquerque and could be use again, with the
understanding that West Coast participants would have a late evening.

two documents germain to current concerns have been put in the files section. 
you will receive notification about the PDF files separaely.

Thanks Jim,
I probably will not attent.  Asheville, NC is too difficult to get to from here.
I will opt for the phone call.

a reminder about the LCAOM meeting  at the Asheville Renaissance Hotel in North
Carolina on Wednesday November 3rd from 6:30 to 9:30 pm.  Note evening time.

we hope to have telephone connection for off-site participation, which will mean
a relatively late evening for the West Coast.

Please submit agenda items through the Yahoo Group.  Subcommittees on
terminology and consortium issues should be prepared to present any efforts made
since the last meeting.

Two suggestions:

Discussion of the recent article from WHO on incorporating OM medical terms.
this document is available in the files section.

Is there a national directory of OM practitioners where one can verify
certification. or perhaps regional ones.  possibility of developing such
directories of practitioners such as exist for some western medical personnel. 
an effort for a consortium?

should the library committee have  liaison with the resaarch committee?

Recently someone from a Western Medical Library asked about checking
qualifications of OM practitioners.  Are there regional or national databases
which provide this?  The state of California has a directory for California
doctors.

I have found two sites to look at.  Please review these sites and recommend
other sources.  we will discuss this fully in Asheville in November
1)
http://omclinic.org/member-practitioner.php
Practitioner Member - OMclinic.org
Section of:OMclinic.org: Oriental Medicine Clinics

this site may offer information about certified practitioners of Oriental
Medicine in North America.
We help people find qualified acupuncture practitioners. Like Google® (but just
for acupuncturists). All qualified acupuncturists are listed in our public
directory FREE.

lists practitioners by area ( list only no links to names).  search for santa
cruz California netted several non santa cruz listings.
2)
NCAOM
http://www.nccaom.org/find/index.html


NCCAOM publishes contact information of practitioners who are nationally
certified in Oriental Medicine, Acupuncture, Chinese Herbology,and Asian
Bodywork Therapy.
Individuals certified in Oriental Medicine have met requirements for board
certification in both Acupuncture AND Chinese Herbology.
A search for a practitioner can be conducted via NCCAOM's Public Registry
(formally the Directory of Diplomates).

In preparation for the Asheville meeting in November, I am asking member
libraries to provide the following information:

1. library role in enhancing literature competency.
questions:
School
size of library
number of students
library activities which enhance liberature competency

example
Five Branches University
#students 400?
size of library: 6000 titles
activities: web based library orientation including search techniques; librarian
assists in teaching research class; librarian facilitates docline requests.

2. library liaison with non OM libraries.
Questions
School
size
students
liaison with nonOM libraries

example
Five Branches University
size, students as above (if answering both questions no need to repeat this)
activities: active liaison with Plane Tree Library in San Jose; exchange OM
materials for recend Westmed materials; provide link to Plane Tree web site; in
active communication with librarian there.
also librarian is active in local public library as part-time oncall.

the informaton gathered will be compiled and discussed in November

Thanks for your help.

Agenda LCAOM for Asheville NC, Wednesday, November 3rd, 6:30-9:30 p.m.

1. Review of April meeting notes and committee reports (if any) on terminology
and consortium.

2. Discussion of library role in student/practitioner literary competency.
examples from Five Branches University.

3. Discussion of databases for finding practitioners of OM, location and
qualifications.
Recently someone from a Western Medical Library asked about checking
qualifications of OM practitioners. Are there regional or national databases
which provide this? The state of California has a directory for California
doctors.

4. Example of collaboration between OM and WestMed libraroes- Five Branches
University and Plane Tree

5. Evaluation of overall role of the Library Committee.  What relation does it
have to the Research Committee?  Should member of library committee sit in on
Research committee meeting?


We hope to have a telephone connection to facilitate participation from other
interested parties who cannot attend in person
Please add any addition items via email.

A copy of the agenda can be found in the files section.

Please research the topic of effects of WiFi on health and whether presence of
WiFi in the clinic is a problem.  Please email the group and we can also discuss
the issue in Asheville.  My research indicates that little research shows up in
PubMed.

easy and free:

--establish a free yahoo email account

--go to Yahoo, select groups, then LCAOM in the search window

--click on "join this group" and follow screen prompts.

--You will be notified soon when your application has been accepted.



Consortium Committee:

--Mahate Osborn replaces Teri Powers on the committee; Dan Kanaley continues.

Resolved to create a document for the spring meeting specifying an outline for
desired features and services of a possible cooperative consortium of OM
libraries.  Smaller libraries are in particular need for support in accessing
fee-based databases and interlibrary loan material.  Details of exact
organizational structure and legal matters will be worked on later.  We must
move forward on this issue.



Terminilogy Committee:

No activity to report.  Discussion of the WHO ICD project and the need for CAM
organizations to have input.  The committee urges the CCAOM to be involved in
this effort in concert with other OM organizations.

Two publications were cited as useful:

WHO stand acupuncture point locations in the Western Pacific Region.

WHO international standard terminology on Traditional Medicine in the Western
Pacific Region

A computer-oriented effort between a major Western university and Chinese
sources on ontology of medical terms was mentioned.



Library role in literature competency:

Various activities provided by libraries to enhance literature competency were
discussed. Efforts include providing adequate online research resources,
teaching students/faculty in the use of the library and its resources and
providing online orientation tools( e.g. Five Branches University PowerPoint
guide to the library and research techniques).  Libraries are involved with
faculty and research departments in varying ways.  In general, students seem
more up to speed than faculty.

One suggestion to enhance research capabilities is for more libraries to join
full text DocLine service and become part of the Oriental Library unit ("cell").
This, in addition to the Yahoo user group, is a way to be more linked with
libraries in our field.



WiFi in libraries and clinics.

Generally WiFi is widely available in OM libraries and clinics.  The effect of
WiFi on health has been researched, however a search on the topic in PubMed
yielded only 34 articles.  In a few peripheral cases students have left an OM
school because of WiFi.  A small number of people claim extreme sensitivity to
electromagnetic frequencies and WiFi in particular.  An informal Googl search on
the topic resulted in a number of articles, about evenly divided between
claiming no effect and anecdotally serious health consequences.



Library Committee and Research Committee

It was decided to pursue liaison between the Library and Research committee.  It
is suggested that the two committees are not scheduled for the same time and
that there be representation on the library committee from a research committee
member and vice versa.



Site Visit

A general discussion of site visits and problems libraries have had in the past.
The current guidelines are easier to work with than earlier versions, but some
questions always remain.  Michael Prater reported from the Accredidation
Committee will looking to the Commission to revise the standards for libraries
based on general standards for what OM schools should look like and what they
could provide.  Criteria would be have customer-service orientation and be
outcome-based.
