We also provide knowledge and library services to other NHS organisations from our libraries at Doncaster Royal Infirmary and Bassetlaw Hospital.

 

We recently achieved 98% compliance for the second year running with the NHS LQAF (Library Quality Assurance Framework) and are seeking to maintain and further increase this excellent score.
