Abstract:	Founded on nursing education, the school has been established for almost five decades. The use of conventional plastic dummy as a technology teaching tool to assist students acquiring problem-solving adaptability is soon to be expired in the new education reform movement. One major reason is that clinical nursing skills have to be practiced repetitively in simulated clinical scenarios in order to enhance the overall clinical care capacity of nursing students, which is important for reducing nursing and medical negligence and protecting the precious life and safety of patients. Considering the importance of clinical education, the librarians had constructed a teaching resource integration platform, which as known as Multimedia on Demand Teaching-assistant Project (hereafter referred as MOD Project), for knowledge sharing and development via adopting their professional capacities in classification, catalog, and educational supporting. The purpose of this project is to facilitate the nursing department in creating a more comprehensive and effective learning assisting system. The first function of this system is helping the instructors record the learning process of their students in details, which can improve teaching quality because the instructors become better at keeping track of the students’ learning condition. The second function of the system is systemically integrating those enormous teaching files to improve learning efficacy by letting the students obtaining relevant information without time or space restriction. At this moment, instructors after receiving the training provided by the librarians have uploaded 188 files using this system. Consequently, for those students attending clinical intern at hospitals off-campus are now able to repetitively practice scenarios and skills they previously learned at school via this system. This is a concrete example of how librarians can support teaching via technology and professional knowledge.
