Keeping up with your CPD

The primary role of the Library is to assist vets and veterinary nurses with their CPD requirements.

We do this by offering subsidised Library membership which offers a range of benefits, including access to a range of full text electronic journals and VetMed Resource, a bibliographic database on veterinary medicine.

We also provide services and resources to help you stay informed on the latest information in your area of interest and online learning on applying EBVM in practice.

Where to start with EBVM

  • EBVM for Practitioners - online learning providing a practical guide to using Evidence-based Veterinary Medicine (EBVM) in practice.
  • EBVM Learning - six hours of free CPD providing a solid foundation in applying EBVM in practice

Services we offer

  • Subscribe to our subject alert services and receive the latest bibliographic references and abstracts on your subject of interest
  • inFOCUS - a journal watch service. Subscribe to have the latest updates sent directly to your inbox in a bi-monthly email containing the summaries - including the bottom line for implementation in practice - plus the option to read the original articles 
  • in the Spotlight - Our ‘In the Spotlight’ features bring together relevant publications on a range of topics that are likely to impact veterinary practice. Relevant papers, guidance, and more provide an easily accessible overview of these topics, allowing practitioners to access the latest evidence and make evidence-based decisions.

    Past topics include the benefits and risks of neutering, COVID-19 and animals, and much more, catch up now.
