[Informational alphabetization tool directed to people who work in the medical sciences libraries in Artemisa province, Cuba].

The performance of librarians in the medical sciences is enhanced by identifying their training needs through the use of an information literacy tool. We performed this study between 2016 and 2017 with the staff of the medical libraries network at Artemisa province in Cuba. In the first stage of the study we assessed the initial state of the staff's information literacy, and in a second stage, we used empiri-cal and theoretical methods to propose an information literacy tool in digital format. The methodology used was based on educational software. The tool will contribute to enhancing the performance of librarians working in the network of medical libraries in the prov-ince of Artemisa, Cuba.
