Program Introduction
Health Science academic programs are increasingly seeking to integrate environmental sustainability into their curricula and core principles. This presentation explores how librarians can contribute effectively to this initiative.

Description
A community-based medical school with a mission to serve rural health aimed to embed environmental sustainability values and practices into its strategic plan. This broad concept encompasses climate resilience, equity, and local practices and purchases. Faculty began reviewing approaches taken by other institutions, however the college found that it needed to align its plan with the broader health science campus and the larger multi-campus public university system. Recognizing that the project's goals required evidence synthesis, the medical library proactively offered support.

Outcomes
The medical librarian collaborated with a faculty member to complete a search for organizational standards, existing plans at comparable institutions, and scholarly publications about environmental sustainability in medical school goal setting. The team utilized an artificial intelligence assistant in part to align with broader campus and institution plans. Key environmental performance indicators identified in the review will be presented internally to inform gap analysis and benchmarking.

Discussion
Evidence synthesis projects that inform internal decision-making processes enable the library to demonstrate its value to the community and highlight the range of services it can offer to health science faculty.
