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."
