Emergency planners and first responders often access web-based information resources during disasters; however, these tools require an active Internet connection, which may be unavailable during a disaster. The National Library of Medicine (NLM) provides several free non-web-based disaster response tools. This study assessed intention to use web-based and non-web-based informational and response tools during disasters among emergency responders and librarians. Educational workshops were held in four Missouri cities in spring, 2016. The NLM tools were presented and attendees practiced using the tools during disaster scenarios. Pre- and post-intervention data about NLM tool awareness and intention to use these tools versus other web-based resources was collected. McNemar tests assessed a pre/post change in intention to use each resource. Four workshops were held, with a total of 74 attendees. Intention to use the NLM tools was low prior to the workshops (range: 20.3–39.2%), but increased significantly immediately afterwards (p < .001 for all pre/post comparisons). The workshops resulted in increased NLM tool awareness and increased intention to use the tools during future disasters. This provides evidence of attendees’ perceptions of the usefulness of the non-web-based NLM tools in place of other web-based tools in situations without Internet access.

急救人员和图书馆员在生物，化学和放射性恐怖主义事件中使用基于Web的资源来获取响应信息的意图

在灾难期间，应急计划人员和急救人员经常访问基于Web的信息资源。但是，这些工具需要有效的Internet连接，这在灾难期间可能不可用。国家医学图书馆（NLM）提供了几种免费的非基于Web的灾难响应工具。这项研究评估了应急人员和图书馆员在灾难期间使用基于Web和基于非Web的信息和响应工具的意图。2016年春季，在密苏里州的四个城市举行了教育讲习班。介绍了NLM工具，并在灾难场景下使用该工具进行了练习。收集了干预前后的有关NLM工具意识和使用这些工具的意图以及其他基于Web的资源的数据。McNemar测试评估了使用每种资源之前/之后的意图变化。举办了四个讲习班，共有74人参加。在研讨会开始之前，使用NLM工具的意愿很低（范围：20.3–39.2％），但此后立即显着增加（ 对于所有前后比较，p <.001）。讲习班提高了NLM工具的意识，并增加了在未来灾难中使用这些工具的意愿。这提供了与会者对在无法访问Internet的情况下使用非基于Web的NLM工具代替其他基于Web的工具有用性的看法。
