Nurses / Midwives - April is for YOU

Nurses and Midwives are you tired of the gymnastics you have to perform to find the information you need for your work or study?

The Knowledge and Library Service has dedicated the month of April 2009 to training nurses and midwives on searching the healthcare databases. Sessions last for 1 hour, are in small groups of 6 maximum and will show you how to search for journal article references and full text where this is available.

You will need a current NHS Athens username and password. You can self-register for this at
http://www.library.nhs.uk/
When you have registered you will need to answer the email you are sent in order to activate your account. If you already have a username and password but are unsure of the details, please contact the library asap as we will not have time to sort out problems during the training.

The April dates and times are as follows:

1st, 2nd & 3rd at
12 – 1pm
7th & 9th at
2 – 3pm
14th, 15th & 16th at

21st, 22nd & 24th at

Please contact the library to reserve a place or turn up on the day for any spare places.

We are happy to organise group sessions outside of these times. Please contact the library if your group would like to do this.
