Greetings from St. Pete/Tampa:
We're always happy to hear from readers of ResourceShelf and of
DocuTicker, our sister site. We're even happier when folks send us
pointers to resources they think are worthy of our attention --
because they're usually right.
Thus, we were made aware of the current Resource of the Week -- LENUS,
the open access Irish health repository, a growing collection of
health-related papers and reports from 1960 to the present. It's just
been accepted to the WorldWideScience Alliance, the global gateway to
open access scientific information. We think it's definitely worthy
of attention, as "the most comprehensive source for Irish Health
information on the internet."
Got a resource you think is worthy of some attention? We'd love to
hear from you.
And have a great week.

Resource of the Week - LENUS: The Irish Health Repository
By Shirl Kennedy, Senior Editor
Direct link to this post online: <http://digbig.com/5bbhpf>
Sometimes, a Resource of the Week-worthy site comes floating in over
the virtual transom, as it were. This week, we received an e-mail from
librarian Gethin White, Regional Library & Information Service, Dr
Steevens Hospital in Dublin, letting us know about LENUS, the newly
launched open access Irish health repository.
LENUS provides freely available, full text access to Irish health-
related reports, research and official publications. We have
already amassed a collection of over 5,000 documents making us the
most comprehensive source for Irish Health information on the
internet.
LENUS - which is named for the Celtic God of health and wellbeing -
'is Ireland's most comprehensive online repository of health-related
reports, research and official publications.' It includes 'material
from former Irish health boards, the Health Service Executive, the
Department of Health and Children and many other organisations active
in the field of Irish health,' from 1960 to the present. It has been
accepted into the WorldWideScience Alliance, the international web-
based science gateway.
You can learn more about this repository via an article by Aoife
Lawton, published last October by the Library Association of Ireland:
Lenus: From healing God to health repository:
