Use of NHS PCs

Students can use NHS PCs in the Health Services Library to take the online PACS training, and to access policy documents on staffnet. If you need to access an NHS PC for these purposes, please ask at the Loans Desk in the Health Services Library.

HSL group study room

The window side of the Health Services Library's group study is now bookable two weeks in advance, allowing you to plan group work at the hospital more effectively.

(The door side of the room will remain bookable only on the day, and bookings for both sides will continue to be limited to a maximum of 2 hour sessions.)
