Access to our library catalogue in which our media (specialist and narrative literature) are listed. We do not offer an interlibrary loan service.
Access to the ParaDoc database in which historical books and articles on topics related to spinal cord injury are indexed. These publications were written by international authors in various different languages and date from 1819 onwards.
Specialist Literature
Research
If you want to help, you have to do the research, as solutions rarely appear out of the blue; patients have their own paths to walk, and we accompany them each step of the way.
Assistance
We help patients discover newfound and maximum autonomy – no matter the injury.
Knowledge management
Knowledge management is vital to an operation such as ours. We’re a part of this knowledge management. Over 80 different occupational groups work at the SPC. You need information or academic literature. We provide it.
Narrative Literature
Laughter
People who read always find something to laugh about, for even the most difficult stories vibrate with an indispensable vitality for life.
Life
People who tell stories uncover truths about how we live as human beings in this world, and how we continue to learn from life, regardless of our age.
Love
Fiction constantly searches for that which is important, and for that which we love.
Library service on the wards
Every Wednesday evening, volunteers pass through the wards with a book trolley. These volunteers are happy to help patients pick out a book. We strive to offer books with positive messages, recounting stories that are moving, exciting and useful.
