The authors outline the institute’s philosophy and approach and provide readers with key content areas, materials, activities, and homework prompts. Initial program assessment is discussed, and the authors share their thoughts on how the program might continue to evolve to meet the changing needs of students. The article concludes with reflections from two peer associates who participated in the program during the 2022–2023 academic year.  \nKeywords: scholarly communication, peer learning, critical information literacy, health sciences librarianship, medical librarianship  \nInnovative Practices  \nedited by Andrea Baer, Carolyn Gamtso, and Merinda McLure  \nSchlesselman-Tarango, G., Edgerton, J., Pryor, E., & Valencia, R.

This has been the case at Des Moines University (DMU), a private graduate-level medical and health sciences institution, where there has been an increase in student demand for resources and services related to student publishing. It is not insignificant that such experience can give students a competitive advantage for residency placement.
