NHS Education for Scotland have launched an impact survey aimed at anyone who uses NHSScotland’s national collection of digital library resources (evidence summaries, databases, medicines information resources, e-journals, articles and e-books).

In 2021, NHS Education for Scotland will begin the process of reviewing this collection provided through The Knowledge Network in preparation for the next tender exercise

Currently NHS Education for Scotland spends £3.2 million per year on subscriptions to these services providing equity of access to evidence and research for all staff in health and social care on a 'once for Scotland' basis. 

We appreciate that this is a challenging and busy time for everyone, so we have kept the survey short. 

Your feedback will provide important evidence on how you value and use these resources. It will also be crucial in demonstrating that the money is being spent wisely and provide evidence to support decisions on the provision of future services. 

To have your say, please complete the survey at: https://response.questback. com/nhseducationforscotland/ impactsurvey2021   

Please pass this link onto colleagues who may also be interested in completing this survey.
