- Internationally, the hospital library serves the Hospital as the primary department responsible for the provision of the Knowledge-based Information and the development of systems and services in order to meet the Knowledge-based Information needs of the Organization. Standard 5 of the Medical Library Association (Standards for hospital libraries 2002 with 2004 revision) demonstrates that there is evidence for effective connections between Knowledge-based Information (KBI) and patient care and education for medical and hospital staff. Concerning the education of medical and hospital staff, the role of the library by the medical librarian must include: the participation of the librarian in the team directing the educational functions in the hospital, the regular provision of material in support of planning and preparing of educational activities, the education of medical and hospital staff on information management and use of information technology, the identification of print and electronic resources for individualised learning, joint library and continuing education, the provision of specific literature in support of educational activities, the provision of access to quality resources of continuing education such as Web-based resources. The aim of this study is to investigate and evaluate the provided user education and training for hospital and medical staff in the Greek hospital libraries and the participation of librarian in the educational activities of institution. Sample of this survey was Greek hospital libraries. Questionnaires were sent out to 44 hospital libraries of Greece and Cyprus. 27 questionnaires were returned, a response rate of 61%. The survey was carried out in April-May 2008 The findings indicate that Greek hospital libraries provide user education, however, it has informal character. The librarian does not participate in the team directing educational functions in the hospital and continuing education resources are not provided. Consequently, either due to unsatisfactory financial support and to well- built stereotypes or due to personnel deficiency and to institutional shortage, MLA standards are being met by inadequate way.
