Via email yesterday:-
From the end of January, all visits to the eLibrary will redirect to The Knowledge Network at www.knowledge.scot.nhs.uk. We hope you like our new website, which includes :
- a new faster search;
- quicker access to journals, articles and books ;
- many customisation features, enabling you to locate resources you use regularly
- a new area called My Resource Space, giving you a personal webspace to save and organise resources. (Ed - this, I particularly like the sound of !!)

I'll definately be keeping a close eye on the new one and must make contact with the people who maintain this really really useful information web portal.
