November is Knowvember, a whole month dedicated to discovering, sharing and making better use of knowledge.
Knowvember is an annual campaign focused on sharing knowledge, improving access to information and highlighting the value of knowledge management. For us, it’s the perfect opportunity to remind everyone across UHSussex that your Knowledge and Library Service offers much more than books.
Whether you’re looking for evidence to support patient care, working on a project, developing your skills, studying for a qualification or simply need a quiet place to work, we’re here to help you.
Did you know we can help you with…?
Throughout Knowvember, we’ll be highlighting the wide range of services, resources and support available to staff, including:
- Finding reliable evidence to support clinical practice, service improvement, audit, research and QI projects
- Literature and evidence searches carried out with support from our Knowledge Specialists
- Keeping up to date with the latest evidence and information through KnowledgeShare, our current awareness service
- Accessing thousands of journals and eBooks, including more than 6,000 journals available through OpenAthens
- Training and one-to-one support to help develop your searching and information skills
- Books and specialist collections across our libraries
- Library spaces for quiet study and working
A few minutes spent finding out what’s available could save you valuable time later and introduce you to resources and services you didn’t know you had access to.
Come and meet us this Knowvember!
