Inter-library Loan and Document Supply Service
If  we do not have either the journal article or book you need, we can get it for you through our
inter-library loan and document supply service.  You may request up to 5 items per week. In partnership with other local and national libraries, a search will be carried out by us to see if the book or article is held by another library and it will be borrowed from that library on your behalf.

Current Awareness
We provide
 regular updates on developments in health.  We can set up tailored Knowledge Alerts to cut through information overload to deliver the latest information targeted to the specific needs of each health care professional.

Knowledge Management
Knowledge management (KM) is the practice of organizing, storing, and sharing vital information, so that everyone can benefit from its use.

What Our Library Users Are Saying...

"Apprentices now have greater access to resources, not only at College or University but in the workplace. The benefits are not solely logistical; the resources and services available to them via the Library & Knowledge Service are current, relevant and varied."

"The library provided me with the evidence base to support a service development of developing a early discharge detox policy. This has improved patient clinical outcomes. This also reduces length of stay and re-attendance at A&E."

"Literature searches carried out by the library staff assisted in the development of a new education program for unregistered staff in response to the Francis report."

"The library carried out a literature search and provided my team with a wealth of relevant information from a variety of different sources that we were able to use within our poster presentation."  


"The information I receive has a positive impact in my role as a Non-Executive Director. Over the past year in post I have found the library alerting service to be an invaluable resource it is a great way to be kept informed via the on-line platform that I can access at times to suit."
