NHS Databases

Edit: Athens authentication has now been fixed

There is currently an issue regarding Athens authenticated access to Ovid resources.

The issue has been reported and is currently under investigation.

Alternate access to Medline is available through the Health Library IT Suite. Please ask library staff for details. A free literature search service is also available to all NHS staff, with online request form available on the Health Library website.
