What are they?

Impact case studies help share best practice and learnings from across the NHS.

Health librarians and knowledge specialists, working closely with staff and organisations within the NHS and wider health sector, bring tangible benefits, including:

• savings in time
• costs
• better operational efficiency

Case studies can be used to effectively capture and summarise the outcome of interviews.

The information can be used for advocacy, marketing and promotion of knowledge and library services.

Impact case studies database

The impact case study database may be found on FutureNHS.  This is the place to share your case studies and demonstrate the contribution of NHS knowledge and library services to healthcare across the system.

You will need to register for FutureNHS and join the Knowledge and Library Services Impact Case Studies workspace.
