e’re proud of our library at Hepatitis SA: it’s a unique collection of the latest Australian and international resources, free to access online - and updated on a weekly basis. Our collection now contains over 2000 items in different formats and languages - and you can be sure that they’re all based on reliable evidence. In this age of ‘Dr Google’ this is more important than ever: if you find information in our library you can be assured that it has been thoroughly checked for accuracy and is from a credible source. So whether you’re looking for reports, journal articles, books, brochures, factsheets, posters, podcasts, videos or comics: it’s all there for you – access is free, easy and confidential. The exciting news is that we’ve been working on a new cataloguing system for a few months and we’re now up and running. The new search page gives you more options for easy searching: either just type in any words from the topic, title or author, or just pick one of the ‘Quick links’.

Finding Information: easier than ever ‘Browse by Topics’ for easy access
There are two lists you can browse through on the search page:
All resources These links lead to everything that we’ve collected: online publications (reports, journal articles, factsheets, websites etc) and also resources that we hold in hard copy in our library (books, games, DVDs, etc). These resources are suitable for clients, service providers, policy makers and the general public.
Australian community resources These are shortcuts to free, online resources that are produced in Australia and are suitable for distribution and use by anyone whose life is affected by Hepatitis. It includes books, booklets, brochures, factsheets, videos, podcasts, comics and posters—all available from the links provided.
