Welcome to the September edition of the National Library for
Public Health newsletter.

We hope you find this useful and would welcome any comments. If

Annual review of resources
It has now been a year since we started working on the National
Library for Public Health. As a result we have undertaken an annual
review of the resources and removed a number of out of date and
duplicated records. There were also a number of records that fell
outside our scope and those have also been removed. The result is a
more cohesive collection.
If you feel that there are resources missing or inappropriate,
please let us know by getting in touch via our Contact
Us form.
