Dateline Dublin, November 15th 2007
The HSE launched its Intranet site on November 15th, and while much of the content remains to be added, and many links activated, two valuable links are fully functional – the Press Cuttings service, which is a fully seachable database of all articles that have a ny relevance for the HSE, warts and all; and the link to the library and information service.. This latter brings you a page which asks that the user requests an account in order to access the ATHENS electonic library. Once the account is created, a user name and password is sent by email.
The image below is a screen shot of the main index of books and journals – each link brings you to a more comprehensive list. I checked out the journals, and found the only dental journal was that of the Canadian Dental Association = L'Association Dentaire Canadienne – which of course is freely available by logging on to its website. There is no mention of the British Dental Journal, or that of the American Dental Association that I could see. Perhaps the HSE can be encouraged to subscribe to these essential journals for the dental community, not the mention Community Dental Health etc.
