| How do I access the physical LIS? The LIS is staffed Monday-Friday 09:00-17:00. Staff may enter the LIS by using their St. Michael’s ID cards. Books may only be borrowed during staffed hours. The LIS is located on the Annexe Ground Floor in the hospital. How do I access the online LIS? The LIS website https://library.svhg.ie provides staff with access to our full suite of electronic resources including online journals, databases and our online catalogue (remote access requests require authentication. You can request a username and ID from the Librarian.) The website also offers interactive forms which staff can use to request a journal article, request a literature search to support a clinical query, to register as a borrower or to request remote access to online resources. Other online services include a calendar of events, opening hours for St. Michael's and St. Vincent's libraries and links to LIS publications and guides. |
