We are constantly striving to deliver the best service possible to help embed evidence into your daily practice. In order to take the service forward, we are kindly asking for staff to complete our short survey here. We value any comments, feedback and recommendations.
Literature searching puts evidence based practice at the forefront of clinical practice- allowing you to find appropriate articles which could have a direct impact upon patients, service planning, clinical support, further research or simply to keep up to date with your area of expertise.
Evidence can support:
Literature searching provides you with the information you need to find the types of articles that will help you with your clinical practice or research. It is a skill that can be developed and should be incorporated into daily practice.
The Library can support you with training on this topic – (either on a 1:1 basis or as a group) should you wish to develop your skills in this area. Please contact; katie.roper@lscft.nhs.uk to arrange a session.
We also provide literature searching as part of our service. Simply fill out the form below and send it back to academic.library@lscft.nhs.uk.
We kindly ask that you give us 10 working days to find the evidence for your request.
