"Ask a Librarian" columns in professional journals

Is anyone aware of any ongoing columns contributed by Medical Librarians in professional nursing journals? This could be a great way to interface with nurses and add to continuing collaboration between librarians and nurses in EBN. Here's an example of just such a column in JAAPA-- Journal of the American Academy of Physician Assistants:

"Ask a Librarian - New Column in JAAPA
Thanks to an alliance between physician assistants and librarians, the Journal of the American Academy of Physician Assistants features a new online column starting this month: “Ask a Librarian”. This column is a co-authored by Jim Anderson, Physician Assistant, and Susan Klawansky, Network Member and Librarian at Seattle Children’s Library & Information Commons. The column will promote collaboration with medical librarians, address questions from physician assistants and point to resources, including http://www.nnlm.gov/. Congratulations to Susan Klawansky for this important outreach effort."
