About
HSE Library is made up of a national team of librarians and library staff. We work to ensure that the best possible research and evidence underpins decision making and advances patient care in the health service. Access to a knowledge base of literature is provided through our website. Innovations in library and knowledge services, such as librarians working as part of multidisciplinary teams, have produced significant improvements in patient care. For example HSE librarians are key contributors to national clinical guidelines. The commitment and skills of all grades of library staff have made possible the quality of library service that healthcare professionals require.
