On the 31st March 2008 the National Library for Health’s ‘Hitting the Headlines’ health news service, which was provided by the Centre for Reviews and Dissemination came to an end.
The good news is that the National Library for Health will continue to provide users with access to high quality news analysis via the ‘Behind the Headlines’ service provided by NHS Choices. This service is now available on the NLH homepage at www.library.nhs.uk. In addition to this, the searchable ‘Hitting the Headlines’ archive will be retained.
‘Behind the Headlines’ provides an unbiased and evidence-based analysis of health stories that make the news on a daily basis and will work to the standards developed by the ‘Hitting the Headlines’ to enhance their service even further.
