The Norwegian Electronic Health Library (Helsebiblioteket), established 2006, is a publicly funded website that provides Norwegian health workers with access to updated professional information.

This is done by

  • providing free access to electronic journals and databases through national subscriptions
  • translating systematically reviewed research and making it accessible to Norwegian readers
  • collecting web resources
  • publishing news articles

The Norwegian Electronic Health Library provides access to new research, advice and guidelines from national authorities, as well as guidelines, advice, and procedures developed by renowned professional institutions. The library includes specialist libraries for mental health and public health.

The Norwegian Electronic Health Library is co-owned by the Directorate for Health and Social Affairs and the four regional health authorities in Norway. It is run by Norwegian Knowledge Centre for the Health Services.
