NHS Scotland eLibrary

The NHS Scotland e-Library aims to empower the healthcare family and benefit patient care by providing high quality knowledge support throughout the patient journey.
The e-Library aims to support:

• Clinical and managerial decision-making
• Education, training and lifelong learning
• Research and development

Its audience includes:

• NHS staff of all disciplines – both clinical and non-clinical
• Students and teachers working with the NHS
• Partners in care in the voluntary and local authority sectors.
• Increasingly, it is working with partners to support the information needs of patients, carers and the public to participate in self-care and shared decision making.

The NHS Scotland e-Library is a comprehensive provider of high quality knowledge content, including:

• 5000 + fulltext electronic journals
• 5000+ electronic books
• 100 + databases of journal articles
• 1000’s of evaluated health and social care Websites

It's the bits in red that are paramount here. Any member of college staff with an interest in health & social care is a member of a partner institution, i.e. the college. Registration has potential for you, your students & for the college. After all we're all on that patient journey. We just don't quite know how far along the road we are yet...
