“…Dimitroff identified 29.8% of articles published in BMLA from 1966-1990 as research articles, compared to the 51.0% found in this study [6]. The findings also confirmed a trend toward more published research in library and information science literature in general compared to previous studies [6,18]. Although the number of pages per article was significantly fewer than Dimitroff found, this could be a result of editorial policies or page layout design [6].…”

“…An in-house database used to assign, document, and archive clinicians’ evidence requests answered by our team was queried to retrieve all questions received since 2010 [11,12,14,39]. To align with GPT-4’s most recent knowledge cutoff date at the time of the study, we excluded questions received after April 2023.…”

“…A previous study found high levels of physician satisfaction with evidence summaries provided by our team [15]. This service requires the librarian to be highly trained and able to quickly search and filter the current available literature on the topic, extract the most salient information needed to answer the question, and prepare a concise but comprehensive narrative synthesis that is returned to the clinician to inform decision-making [16]. Given the ability of generative AI chat tools to quickly produce detailed, fully articulated summaries drawn from a large body of knowledge, evaluating their current performance in responding to clinical questions is critical to understanding how they may eventually be integrated into medical librarians’ workflows.…”

“…This month's editors' column notes a gratifying and exciting increase in the number of research papers published in the JMLA across the tenure of the last several editors [1]. This emphasis on research is also echoed in the recently updated research policy statement of the Medical Library Association, which notes, ''information issues have moved to a prominent position on the health care research agenda, and health sciences librarians are well placed to investigate many of them'' [2].…”
