Evidence searches

Our staff are skilled in carrying out evidence (literature) searches to support clinical practice, service development, research and publication. We can help save you time and ensure you find the high-quality evidence to support your evidence-based practice. 

This is a free service provided to all staff, and you can have your search set up as an alert to email you details of new publications on a monthly or weekly basis.

Current awareness

Evidence and current awareness updates can provide highly tailored, individual updates of newly published health care information in your areas of interest.

Personalised evidence updates

Tell Knowledge and Library Services about your areas of interest - you can be as broad or as detailed as you like - and how often you would like to be updated. Your evidence update will be personally configured by a professional librarian to ensure you only receive relevant, high-quality information.
