摘要

1997年，美国国家医学图书馆(NLM)主任Donald A.B. Lindberg医学博士同意满足非洲疟疾研究人员的要求，即全面访问互联网和医学期刊，这是美国国家卫生研究院(NIH)对疟疾多边倡议(MIM)的贡献的一部分。这个挑战符合我的兴趣和以前在非洲的经历。我于1997年加入NLM，与NIH的几个组成部分以及非洲、美国、英国和欧洲的30多个其他合作伙伴合作，帮助建立了MIM通信网络(MIMCom)。在MIMCom成功启动后，NLM与非洲伙伴合作，与科学家、图书馆员、期刊编辑和医科学生一起制定了一系列创新项目，以建设非洲大陆的能力，并增加全球获取非洲研究成果的机会。

When spider webs unite, they can tie up a lion: NLM's work in information technology and health in Africa, 1997-2011.

In 1997, Donald A.B. Lindberg M.D., Director, U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM) agreed to address the request of African malaria researchers for full access to the Internet and medical journals as part of the U.S. National Institutes of Health's (NIH) contribution to the Multilateral Initiative on Malaria (MIM). This challenge matched my interests and previous experience in Africa. I joined NLM in 1997 to help establish the MIM Communications Network (MIMCom) in partnership with several NIH components and more than 30 other partners in Africa, the U.S., the United Kingdom (U.K.), and Europe. After a successful launch of MIMCom, NLM worked with African partners to create a series of innovative programs with scientists, librarians, journal editors, and medical students to build capacity on the continent and enhance global access to research in Africa.
