This document outlines the collaborative efforts to strengthen library services and knowledge management between Salford and Trafford Primary Care Trusts (PCTs). It highlights key initiatives, including the development of educational resources, user profiles, staff training, and the establishment of local multidisciplinary evidence centers. The shift towards greater PCT autonomy involves transferring responsibilities, necessitating formal consultations. Key partnerships with higher education libraries and public libraries are emphasized to optimize resource sharing and improve public health information access for staff and community members alike.
