Before completing your Nursing Revalidation, Check out how the library can help

As part of your NMC Revalidation you may be asked to provide evidence of reflection on practice and professional reading, as well as keeping up-to-date. The Health Library is here to support you.

At the Library

Joining the Library allows you to use our facilities, services and resources. Complete our application form and bring it, along with your NHS ID badge, to the counter so that we can set you up as a member.
You can use our comfortable study areas and IT suite if you need somewhere quiet to work on your revalidation.

Using Resources

You can access a wealth of resources, either in print at the library or online via your NHS OpenAthens username. You’ll be able to find good quality, healthcare-specific information to provide evidence for your practice and support your professional reading.

Attending Training

You can improve your information skills and literature searching skills by attending our training sessions or completing our online etutorials. We have a range of courses to help you to find the right kind of information you are looking for.

You’ll find more details about how we can help you on our website.

If you can think of any way that we can help you more, then please do let us know. Have a word with a member of staff at the counter or complete our online comments form.
