Forth Valley Library Services are FREE for all NHS Forth Valley and Social Care Staff. See below instructions on how to register for an Open Athens username and password and a short list of resources and services.

All the libraries resources are accessible through The Knowledge Network. Use the Library Search to find physical texts, eBooks and articles.

Athens

To register for an Athens account click here, or alternatively go to The Knowledge Network Homepage and, in the top right corner, click the button called ‘register’. Fill in the form in the New User box via the ‘register here’ link as shown below. Once completed you will receive an email to activate your account and create a password.

If you already have an account and have forgotten your password or your username, at the bottom right of the register page will be a box that says ‘Forgotten something?’ as shown below. Follow the links there to reset your password or to retrieve your username.

Services

The full range of services provided can be found on the Intranet via the Library Services page. If you cannot access the intranet, or you wish to request a literature request or arrange a training session, please contact the Librarian directly on the email address below.
