The National Library for Health seems to have morphed into NHS Evidence - the content of this page is here for archive reasons only, but is no longer current.
The National Library for Health (NLH, formerly National electronic Library for Health (NeLH)) is a resource set up by the NHS to provide information for health care professionals.
Prodigy has now migrated to the NLH, as the Clinical Knowledge Summaries.
It has a number of useful links, and also comprises a number of specialist libraries:
Specialist libraries by subject
- Cancer
- Cardiovascular diseases
- Child health and paediatrics
- Clinical genetics
- Diabetes
- Emergency care
- ENT and audiology
- Eyes and vision
- Health informatics
- Health management
- Infection ("NELI") (Or at this link, which may have more complete information: the system used by the main library conforms to a standard which does not permit the added value provided at NELI, with short reviews of documents done by professionals working in the field. BTW, you get 2 CPD points for doing a review...)
