Outreach Services
   
   
  Synergy Medical's Knowledge Services department provides 15 rural hospitals and healthcare organizations with access to our collection and services. These services include:
   
 
Reference Assistance - both manual reference work and computerized literature searches are performed by the reference staff.

Photocopy Service - articles are copied at no charge from our in-house collection of over 300 journal subscriptions. Photocopies are mailed within one business day or faxed the same day if needed for patient care.

Borrowing Books - over 6,000 medical, nursing, allied health and administration/management textbooks are available on-site for check out. Books are mailed first class and usually arrive the next day.

Interlibrary Loans - articles or books that are not housed in our collection can be requested from other hospitals or university libraries and sent to the requestor by mail or fax. Interlibrary loans are usually filled within 3-5 business days.
 
   
  There is no charge for reference service, photocopies, or borrowing books from our collection. Interlibrary loans are available at a cost of $10.00 each. This amount helps cover the cost we incur from libraries that charge us to fill requests. Patrons that use our Outreach Services will be asked if they are willing to pay the $10 fee before we order articles from outside sources.

For further information about Synergy Medical's Outreach Services you may contact Mary Schmidt, Outreach Coordinator, at 989-583-6881, by fax at 989-583-6898 or by email mschmidt@synergymedical.org
