Library resources
We have access to a range of printed material and electronic resources to support you in your delivery of patient care as well as your studies, research and continuing professional development (CPD).
Books and journals
Both the Hirson and Sally Howell libraries have a large collection of books, journals and reports to support the information needs of clinical, non-clinical and support staff.
You can search our library catalogue (opens in a new window) for items held at our libraries. Please refer to our handy tips for searching the library catalogue guide.
You may borrow up to eight items at a time. Items are issued for 28 days. You may renew items three times in person, by email or by telephone if the item has not been reserved by another reader.
Print journals are for reference only. We have moved the majority of our collection online. To check what journals are currently available online please go to the Browzinepage.
To request a book, or journal article please complete the relevant online form.
Electronic resources
You can access a broad range of electronic healthcare information resources from anywhere with internet access whether at home, from your clinics or in the library.
ESTH Virtual Reading Group
The #ESTHReadingGroup is now digital.

Our recommendation this month to coincide with Black History Month is Yinka, Where Is Your Huzband?, by Lizzie Damilola Blackburn.
