Listed below are some of the ways UHL Libraries & information services can help you keep up-to-date with the latest information research and evidence. Please contact one of the libraries for more information.

Clinical Audit - newly published articles
The UHL Clinical Librarian team produce monthly updates which highlight new articles relating to clinical audit, filtered to UK/NHS. You can view the MEDLINE results here, the CINAHL results here and the EMBASE results here.

Evidence updates The UHL Clinical Librarian Service produces evidence updates for a range of specialties, which detail the latest practice changing evidence. Some of these updates are no longer being produced but a comprehensive current awareness service is available using the KnowledgeShare resource. You can change settings to tailor the bulletins to your requirements. This is current awareness that puts you in control. To ask us to sign you up, simply fill in this online form.
