Staying in Touch with the Health Library during lockdown

The Health Library is currently closed due to the coronavirus / covid-19 restrictions. Whilst the Library building will not be available we are trying to run as many services as we can remotely during the lockdown.

If you need to get in touch with the library there are a number of routes you can use:

Email

The Health Library email account health.library@keele.ac.uk is being monitored on a regular basis. Please contact us if you have any queries.

We have a link on the Health Library home page to all the service changes occurring due to the current restrictions. Just click the button to find out what is happening.

You can follow us on Twitter to learn more about how we can help you during the current lockdown. The account is monitored regularly if you need any help here.
