For those of you who use or have adapted the literature search guidance produced by South Central Librarians, you may like to know that the document has been updated.

 

If you’ve not come across it before, this document is designed to be a checklist for doing literature searches, including sources to search, and is specifically targeted at researchers, though it can be used /adapted for any user group.

 

The current version is available from the NESC website at   http://www.nesc.nhs.uk/e-learning__libraries/library__knowledge_resources/for_library_staff/search_skills_group/minutes__papers.aspx#SCSSGsearchprotocols

 

We have had several requests to adapt this document for local use. If you would like to do this, please feel free but we would be grateful if you could acknowledge the original source.

 

 

Best wishes
