A growing number of librarians are filling a special niche in the information world: Serving those who work with genetic and molecular biology information. In this one-hour Webinar on January 12, 2017, meet eight of your colleagues as they explain their specialized and uniquely valuable roles at their institution:


  • Julie A Arendt, Virginia Commonwealth University
  • Marci Brandenburg, University of Michigan
