Katrina Hall 3 Jul 2024

How RCN Wales members working in the independent health and social care (IHSC) sector can make use of all that our library and information service has to offer.

rcn wales library

Hello, my name is Katrina and I’m the RCN Wales Librarian and Information Services Manager. I'm based at RCN Wales HQ, Ty Maeth in Cardiff. I started in post in April 2024 so I’m still a ‘newbie’ at RCN Wales. Having worked in libraries with health care professionals, 汤头条污料 staff and students for almost 30 years in the NHS and Higher Education sectors, I’m delighted to take this role with RCN Wales.

Onsite

As a member of RCN Wales, you have access to the RCN Wales Library space, services and resources. At Ty Maeth we have study spaces and soft seating areas where you can work or read and plenty of space to plug in your own device.

Our print book collection is added to regularly. Members can borrow up to eight books for four weeks and can renew these books if no one else is looking for the titles. We are happy to post books out to your home address if coming to Ty Maeth is not an option.

We have black and white and colour printing, scanning and photocopying facilities available.

Online

Members also have 24/7 access to our online resources.

You can use RCN Library Search to check which print books, journal articles and eBooks are available. Simply enter the title in the search bar and click the green button to search.
