Current awareness – what is it and why do you need it?

Current awareness is simply knowing about the most recent developments in your area of study/work. Everyone who is interested in doing a good job needs to know the latest evidence in their field.

The library can help you stay in touch with latest evidence with its new personalised current awareness service called KnowledgeShare. Whenever high impact publications in your field are identified, you will be alerted.

Your KnowledgeShare profile may be created to be as broad as you need or more specific – whichever suits you.

To set up an account please use this form: Knowledge Share New User Form

(Please note this service is only available to members of the library so please register with the library first before joining Knowledgeshare. Contact: library.office@dchft.nhs.uk)
