LKS ASE is a partnership between eight English ambulance services to provide national coverage. The new service operates in four key areas:
- Request an Article – complete an online form and request any article you need.
- Request a search – complete the online form to request a literature search.
- Current Awareness – sign up for monthly current awareness updates.
- Guides and Help – the library has written guides on topics related to searching, research and paramedic practice.
LKS ASE is working with Manchester University NHS Trust Library Services to deliver a document supply service. Further developments are planned for the future to extend the service offering including an implementation of KnowledgeShare and a repository.
The plan for the next three years of operation is set out in the LKS ASE Strategy. If you have any comments on the strategy please feed them back to Matt.Holland@nwas.nhs.uk .
