This enhances the NHS Knowledge and Library Hub (EBSCO EDS) in 3 key ways:

An online tool that allows users to easily browse your library’s current journal content through their web browser.

This works with the link resolver to ensure that users see both nationally and locally purchased content.

Please note that the full version of BrowZine (which includes personalisation features and an app) is not included in the NHS England subscription.

NHS trust libraries have the option to add the BrowZine personalisation features and the BrowZine App at a cost of £1,025 per year. A pro rate can be negotiated to the end of the current national contract in March 2026.  The LibKey Nomad++ top up is £1,850 per year.

These features enable end-users to build a customised collection with My Bookshelf and alerting features that notify them when a new issue has been published. 

The app is available on iOS and Android for subscribing organisations. The Browzine App can now use OpenAthens.
