Healthy reading

Aberdeen City Libraries has developed healthy reading collections with input from NHS Grampian professionals and local health care organisations. The collections consist of self-help, biographical and fiction titles in a variety of formats including e-books and e-audiobooks to support individuals, their friends and family and those with an interest in the subjects.

More information can be found in our leaflet. 

 

    How to find a book in the collection

    Discover books, ebooks and eaudiobooks through the library catalogue

    The collections can be searched for directly through our library catalogue by doing a simple search for "Healthy reading collection". You can then narrow your results by clicking on "refine set" or by selecting options under "refine results".

    Our book lists can be browsed to find specific titles within the collections. You can use Ctrl - F to search the documents by keyword. Symbols are used to denote where a document is available in different format a key is provided at the bottom of the document. Once you've found the title you want then you can search for and reserve it via our library catalogue.

    The collections cover a broad range of topics that is based upon feedback from library customers, partners and NHS health statistics.
