New neurology resource available for health professionals
Neurologists attending the annual meeting of the Association of British
Neurologists today witnessed the launch of a new online resource: the NLH
Specialist Library for Neurological Conditions (freely available at
www.library.nhs.uk/neurological) aims to gather together the best quality
evidence surrounding neurological conditions and make it easily accessible
to health professionals. The resource has been developed by a team led by
Professor David Chadwick and quality assessed by an Editorial Board
comprising leading neurologists, health professionals, patient and
professional organisation representatives. Information specialist support
is provided by staff of the Royal Free Hospital Medical Library, UCL
Library Services.
Professor David Chadwick, Clinical Lead, said:
“This resource will provide the highest quality evidence in an easily
accessible place, saving the health professional vital time and helping to
improve patient care.”
Sir Muir Gray, Director of the National Knowledge Service, commented:
“Knowledge is the enemy of disease. The application of what we know will
have a bigger impact on neurological disease than any drug or technology
likely to be developed in the next decade. The National Library for Health
is very pleased to launch this knowledge base for this very important
group of diseases.”
The resource was launched at the meeting by Clinical Lead, Professor David
Chadwick, and Project Manager, Sara Clarke of the Royal Free Hospital
Medical Library, and will be promoted nationally.
