Health Improvement Library Resource Catalogue 2012 - 2013
Dear Colleague
We are delighted to send you a copy of the Health Improvement Library’s
Resource Catalogue, which includes information about the new items added to
our Library since the start of 2009 and our multimedia models - all of which
are available to hire at no charge. Our books, and stock that was added to the
library prior to 2009, is not shown simply because it would make this catalogue
too large. However, by joining the library you will be able to see these online, or call in and browse.
The library also stocks a wide range of free leaflets and posters, which cover
a variety of health topics. We can send you or email a copy of the leaflet
catalogue on request - it’s updated monthly. We’ve listed the subjects that we
cover however, so you can see the range of topics.
If you would like to borrow any of the resources listed in this catalogue, please
complete the membership form on page 6 and send it back to us. By joining the
Health Improvement Library, you will automatically become a member of the
Scottish HEalth Libraries CATalogue (SHELCAT), which enables you to search
the catalogues and borrow from over 50 other health libraries in Scotland giving you access to thousands of other resources.
We look forward to hearing from you soon, and if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us!
Kind regards,
Library Staff
