Trial of mental health, learning disabilities and social care electronic journals

E-Journals

We are running a three-month trial of the Emerald Health and Social Care e-journals collection. This collection includes 22 journals covering the fields of mental health, learning disabilities, forensic psychology and vulnerable groups, with titles including:

-         Advances in Mental Health and Intellectual Disabilities

-         Ethnicity and Inequality in Health and Social Care

-         Journal of Adult Protection

-         Journal of Criminal Psychology

-         Journal of Mental Health Training, Education and Practice

-         Mental Health and Social Inclusion

-         Quality in Ageing and Older Adults

-         Tizard Learning Disability Review

A complete list of titles included is available via the Emerald website.

The journals are available for you to access now via our Emerald page.  You will need an Athens username and password – click on “Login” on the top left of the screen, and then click on “Athens login”. Once you are logged in you will see a complete list of our subscriptions including the Health and Social Care Collection at the end of the list.

As well as being accessible via Emerald, you will also find these journals when you search My Journals or the healthcare databases via NHS Evidence (again, you will need an Athens account for this).

If you don’t already have an Athens account you can register for one via the Athens self-registration page. If you’d like any help with registering for Athens or accessing the journals online, please get in touch with us. There are also user guides available for the Emerald site, and for accessing e-journals.

We’d like to know what you think of this new collection and whether it is something that you would like us to subscribe to. Please contact us with your feedback!
