Scheduled Online Sessions: July and August

Find It Fast with Library Services

Are you new to the organization or need a refresher on Library Services' website and service offerings? This orientation-style session introduces supports and resources available through Library Services, including subject guides, patient pamphlets, and research access points. You will also learn how to search our collection and library databases for current, informative resources.

Developing Patient Education Pamphlets

Learn how easy-to-read and up-to-date patient education materials can support patient care and safety. You will learn how to:

  • Create a new pamphlet
  • Facilitate the updating process
  • Find, use and share Nova Scotia Health patient pamphlets

Register for one or both of these sessions through our Learning Opportunities calendar.

 

Custom Group Training and Library Consults Available Anytime

Looking for a customized training experience? We have you covered!
