Yacca Library NWHHS: NWHHS staff support

Yacca Library is the Medical Library for the North West Hospital and Health Service (NWHHS).

   How we can help
 

Are you conducting a clinical audit / quality activity / service evaluation, or undertaking research?

We can assist Queensland Health staff with:

  • Planning your literature review and study protocol / project plan.
  • Advisory information for seeking ethical and governance approvals for your project.
  • Workshops and training focusing on "the search in research" skills.
  • Basic referencing checking a range of documents.
  • EndNote basics.
     

Are you undertaking a graduate program, professional development or university courses/ programs?

  • One-on-one meetings for how to conduct a literature search, academic writing and understanding assessment.
  • Borrow your core texts from the library, check the Queensland Health library catalogue for available titles and eBooks.
  • Basic reference checking.
  • EndNote basics.
     

Please Note: University researchers are encouraged to contact their Faculty Liaison Librarian for academic support and research assistance. Where you are completing a coursework qualification for academic credit (bachelor, diploma, masters) there is an expectation you will complete project research yourself, with library services providing research skills support.
