The University of North Texas Health Science Center (UNTHSC) completed a project to transform traditional, print-centric library space into an open, technology-enabled learning commons. The library’s print collection was dramatically reduced to create a new Collaborative Learning Commons in areas formerly occupied by bookshelves. Removal of books, journals, and shelving was carefully planned based on the needs of students, researchers, and clinicians. Following the print collection reduction, the new physical commons development included changing walls, replacing flooring, adding electrical and network connections, installing advanced technology resources, and using innovative furnishings to promote collaboration. The major accomplishments of this project include repurposing of library space to serve modern health science student needs through the creation of vibrant meeting and workspaces, expansion of access to educational technologies, and increased access to library scholarly information resources via a significant investment in electronic resources.

A computerized information-gathering system has been developed at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Dallas for otolaryngologic head and neck surgery. Surgeons enter data on operations by answering multiple-choice questions at computer terminals situated near the operating rooms of each hospital. The system's main functions are to ensure completeness in the collection of operation data, allow easy review of such data for weekly conferences, and increase availability of such information for future comprehensive analysis. The scheme for data input, the logics of classifications, and the benefits of such a system are described.
