UpToDate access restored!

Resolved 28 May 2013

Links to UpToDate from the Barts Health Intranet are now working again.  The link on the Barts Health Catalogue will be restored shortly.

Access is still available using your Athens login (which also gets you into all our great ejournals).  Follow your usual link > click Log in > Athens Log in and enter your Athens details.  You may be prompted to set up a linked account but you can skip this if you are not planning to use UpToDate regularly offsite. 

For those not already familiar with UpToDate it is a point of care tool to help you answer clinical questions quickly. It has a straightforward search box and offers topic reviews that include a synthesis of the literature, recent evidence and specific recommendations for patient care.

Athens access means you can use at the location of your convenience.  While not mobile optimised it is also possible to open the system on the device of your choice.

You can self register for Athens from any Barts Health PC and once registered you can use it from any PC.  

If you already have an Athens login but have forgotten your details or just need some help contact the teams at library.newham@bartshealth.nhs.uk and library.whippsx@bartshealth.nhs.uk.
