In this week’s Mission Partner Monday, we spotlight Emily P., medical librarian.

“I support OSF Saint Anthony as well as Saint Anthony College of Nursing where I help clinicians find reliable, evidence-based information to support patient care, research and continuing education,” Emily said. “I also work with nursing students and faculty teaching them how to navigate research databases, evaluate sources and use new tools and technologies, including AI.”

“I love learning something new every day, especially when it comes to technology and AI tools. It’s exciting to explore how these tools can be used in healthcare and education—and then share that with students, faculty, and clinicians. I really enjoy teaching others how to use these resources in ways that make their work easier or more effective. Seeing that moment when something clicks for them is really rewarding. Plus, I get to work with a great team and support people who are doing amazing things in patient care and education.”

Fun facts:
1. “I love the outdoors: camping, hiking, swimming.”
2. “I try to read 60+ non-serious books a year in any genre.”
3. “I hate cooking but love eating, which makes me an excellent restaurant companion and snack enthusiast.”
