Abstract

Ensuring post-registration health students have information literacy skills to effectively use higher education and NHS learning resources: benefits of collaboration across the NHS, higher education and public library sectors

 

In 2002, a study at Northumbria University Library took place into learning resources provision for health students in the clinical setting. A key recommendation was the need for more effective collaboration between University library staff, NHS library staff and academics. This imperative was used to shape a project that delivered a CD based information literacy programme for post-registration health students, which would help students make effective use of NHS and University learning resources.

Presented with Sheena Hanes
