Log in to the NHS Knowledge and Library Hub – step-by-step instructions

By

 The NHS Knowledge and Library Hub is a discovery tool that allows you to search across a range of NHS and healthcare-based resources. The types of resources includes journals, databases and ebooks.

The instance of the Hub is set up to match the resources and services available to your NHS organisation. This means that you need to ensure that you get the right version of the Hub so that you can easily access the resources available to you.

How do you get to your version of the Hub?

Well, there are a couple of routes…

Here at the Health Library we keep all links to NHS-based resources on our (aptly named) NHS resources web page.
