The ebook option

We recently added some new ebooks. Checking NewhamCat I was suprised to find we now have nearly 750 books in electronic form. These range from the brand new NCEPOD report on Sickle Cell (Sickle: A Sickle Crisis?) published in the last couple of days to most of the major Department of Health documents since they started putting them on the Internet. We have a number of Oxford Handbooks / Textbooks and a wide range of mental health and nursing / midwifery related titles.

The best way to find our ebooks is to search NewhamCat - all ebooks are marked as such and have a link direct to the item itself (Athens login sometimes required). You can also search the majority of our book type ebooks (ie not the DH ones) via the National Library for Health (Athens login definitely required here).

We can add pretty much anything web based to NewhamCat so feel free to point out things we have missed or that you feel would be useful for others.
