Your online library: new resources for 2012

In January 2012 the College's Library and Surgical Information Services launched a further expansion in the range of electronic journals and resources to support your professional development and practice. Your comments to the Library, particularly through the e-journals survey carried out in summer 2011, have helped shape the collection as we try to take a more evidence-based approach in order to meet your needs as closely as possible. We have been able to provide access to 20 new e-journal titles for UK fellows and members from a range of publishers, including key titles such as the Journal of the American Medical Association, Archives of Surgery and Annals of Plastic Surgery. A full list of the newly added titles is available at http://www.rcseng.ac.uk/library/online-resources/online-journals/new-journal-titles.

Based Medicine

This book is the result of what began more than a decade ago as a series of articles that were published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). The series ran from 1993 to 2000. The forebears of this series were a similar but small series of articles published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal, beginning in 1981. But as well as a genealogy, this book has a pedigree. The father of evidence based medicine; David Sackett worked closely with at least some of the editors and contributors to this volume, and has clearly provided inspiration to the many fine contributors. His intellectual fingerprints are all over these pages – and a good thing too.
