Description
Procuring STAHL Online is essential to ensuring continuous and secure access to NHS Wales re-resources, which have been in place since 2023. The current STAHL Online contract is due to expire on 31st December 2025. Maintaining this resource is justified, as it ensures NHS Wales users retain direct online access to reliable, up-to-date neuropsychopharmacology learning and teaching materials. These materials have been recommended by health and care professionals, have demonstrated high levels of usage, and are approved to support mental health professionals working in the field of neuropsychopharmacology.
Without continued access to this resource, NHS colleagues would be reliant upon their physical library services to purchase the latest printed materials. This would place additional strain on e-library services and budgets, and potentially limit timely access to essential, evidence-based information.
