We provide library services primarily to staff and students on placement at Leeds Community Healthcare.  We also provide services to primary care staff in Leeds, St Gemma’s Hospice staff, and public health staff in Leeds City Council.

We are “more than just books” and can help you access relevant up-to-date information to support your day-to-day work, research, and professional development.

Staff benefit from the full range of services and resources offered by Leeds Libraries for Health, as well as the specific services highlighted on this page.

We have a small physical library space at White Rose Park (LCH Trust HQ) but you don’t need to visit us to use any of our services. Get in touch with any queries, and we will do our best to help!
