Health Science Information Consortium of Toronto

The Health Science Information Consortium of Toronto is a collaboration of libraries and information centres in teaching, community hospitals, public health units and other health care institutions.  The largest consortium of its kind in Canada, we play a vital role in advancing health care by providing access to evidence-based information to over 62,000 employees in hospitals and health departments.

We:

• Negotiate group licenses and subscriptions to premium electronic resources on behalf of our members
• Collaborate to provide instruction on navigating new technologies and searching evidence-based health databases
• Enable the sharing of information resources across our member libraries/institutions, including supporting a union catalogue of member library holdings
• Provide ongoing continuing education for health information professionals
