In a nutshell: The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) has signed a 3 year agreement to provide staff and healthcare students with access to The Lancet via the NHS Evidence website (www.evidence.nhs.uk).
From 3 January 2012, every member of staff and healthcare students from an NHS England commissioned education programmes, can access the latest online editions of The Lancet, as well as back copies from the last 4 years. This means NHS library services and healthcare staff and students won’t have to subscribe individually. This agreement will improve NHS-wide access to this valued resource.
