That's very useful as is the link that has been mentioned to the Dialog
helpsheets
http://nhs.dialog.com/Forms/Help%20Pages.htm# (Though local backup ppts
of one sort or another are still needed for when Dialog/NHSnet/local
servers are not working properly)
I second the idea that the NLH link below is updated. Dialog and all
the other Core Content resources have evolved a lot in the last 2 years
and this could be very useful to save all those wheels being reinvented
(or at least reshod)again

Hello Susanne,
There are still some training materials available on the "For
librarians" page of NLH, though the list doesn't seem to have been
updated since 2005. (Contains workbooks, handouts and user guides, but
no presentations / slides, alas!)
http://www.library.nhs.uk/forlibrarians/training/materials
Don't know if this particular bit is scheduled for re-vamp any time
soon, but it would be a really useful place for us to put things that we
were happy to share. And to get ideas from :-)
