Things in the library 13th Nov

Concerns have been raised as it has come to light that there are a significant number of errors contained in the recently issued BNF-c 2015/16 books. Sheffield Children's hospital is part of a nationally co-ordinated response to the editors regarding these issues. Whilst awaiting national guidance SCH staff are directed to use the more regularly updated electronic version in preference. It is available on SCH intranet and internet however to access via the mobile app you need to use your NHS Open Athens login. Please ask the library if you need help with this.


Things about mental health outcomes for children
The King's Fund and Young Minds ran an event in October on "Improving mental health outcomes for children and young people: How do we really transform services?" You can now see on-line the speeches and breakout sessions: Pathways Project - delivering interventions to young adults involved with the criminal justice system; Exploring some of the opportunities and challenges within transformation planning and implementation; Update on Tier 4; Implementing a liaison model; Case study- implementing the recommendations of the Tier 4 review; Reducing waiting times.

Things about signs
As part of a hospital project to improve signage we now have a much clearer and obvious entrance - so when you come out of the lifts of F Floor in Stephenson Wing and turn left this is what you will see. We are also revamping our library logo and leaflets - our new logo is already starting to appear. More about this in a future blog.
Things closed ....US 
Tuesday 17th November the library will be closed all day. The whole team will be attending a Yorkshire & Humberside Library & Knowledge Services networking event in Leeds. Sorry we won't be around but if you need to return books they can be left in the book drop box outside the library. Any email/messages we will deal with on Wednesday.


Things purple

At the Peace Gardens between 16:00 and 18:00 the lights will be turned to purple. The celebrations are going to be attended by the Frozen Princesses and there will be performances from Voices of Jessop Wing. National Grid have also got involved this year and will be lighting up their Sheffield office buildings purple on the day.

Things about being human

Things about a phantom noise in Stephenson wing
Image result for washing lineAll this week the library staff have been hearing a noise which sounds like a washing machine starting its spin cycle...regularly...every few minutes...do let us know if you know what it is. If anyone has started taking in laundry and is also offering an ironing service we would love to know!

Things to relish
hendersonsHenderson's Relish, known locally as Hendo's, is the essence of Sheffield. Join Sheffield University Management School to hear all about the fascinating journey of this iconic Sheffield brand from 1882 to present day. The talk will be followed by a Q&A session. Henry Henderson first began manufacturing his own special type of sauce back in the latter part of the 19th century. Originally manufactured at Broad Lane in Sheffield, Henderson's Relish is still being made and was in uninterrupted production within half a mile of the site from which the first bottle was filled, until the move to a new food production factory in 2013.

Things to make
Veggie spiral pie with spiced tomato sauce & chopped saladSarah can recommend this vegetarian recipe that she will be making again this weekend. Veggie spiral pie with spiced tomato sauce & chopped salad.  Anything containing spinach and feta cheese sounds good to me! Wonder if Henderson's Relish goes with that?!!
