Library and electronic resources in training practices
It is expected that a training environment will have a library resource with some representation from each of the different areas listed below.
Not all the books or resources need to be present. The trainer should be aware of this list and decide what the most appropriate resources for their learning environment are.
These may be as a physical text or as an online resource with the password if needed remembered in the browser. Online resources are clearly preferable in most circumstances.
The GP school would also like to see the educational resource develop into a multidisciplinary learning resource with the inclusion of resources for nursing, pharmacy and allied health care colleagues.
Journals for the last 2 years such as the BJGP, BMJ and AiT should also be accessible; if online the learner should not use other individuals log on details.
For those who feel that it is also useful to have ready reference to clinical areas, there is a general list of clinical books that many GPST’s find useful.
In addition to this reading list, we expect that you will create a folder containing links to significant resources for learning on the desktop.
