I hope you have all now had the chance to have a look at the National Core Collection of databases and access to electronic journals online. If not, you can browse the information at http://nhs.dialog.com. In order to get yourself a password, log on to an NHSNet machine and follow the instructions on the webpage. If you have any queries contact me on 01284 713343. Another exciting development here in the Education Centre is the inception of a photography department to support the Cambridge Graduate Course and photography in the West Suffolk Hospital - contact James Eyland on 01284 713777 to find out more. And finally from Monday the 30th June for 8 weeks at 5.30 p.m. we will be running a film season starting with Doctor in the House with an introduction by Dr Ray Godwin on the image of the doctor as portrayed in this amusing film. Everyone welcome.
