BSAVA launches new video library
"Users will also be able to see more easily how many library passes they have left" - Ian Mellor, head of publishing at the BSAVA.

The new library contains over 400 videos. 

The British Small Animal Veterinary Association (BSAVA) has launched a new video library within the BSAVA Library website.

Containing over 400 videos on clinical topics, the video library will feature content on a large number of topics, including imaging, neurology, endoscopy and endosurgery, among many others.

Video content is also searchable in the new library, making it easier to find specific content and more user-friendly.

Head of publishing at the BSAVA, Ian Mellor, commented on the launch of the new video library: “We are delighted that we can bring this new feature to the BSAVA Library, giving our audience easier access to great video content.

“This is part of a few enhancements to the library where we hope to give users a better experience.

“Users will also be able to see more easily how many library passes they have left, and they will now be able to see recommended related resources next to the content, meaning that they can easily find information under the same topic without having to search extensively.”

BSAVA members will automatically have access to over 80 videos, and if a user does not have access to a particular video they wish to view, they can use a BSAVA library pass to gain access to the parent chapter. Users can also purchase access to an individual chapter or entire manual.

New form for online veterinary medicines retailers

The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) has produced a new online form for retailers wishing to sell veterinary medicines on the internet.

The form replace the previous Word version and is part of the VMD's ongoing commitment to digitise its processes. Anyone retailing prescription medicines online, including POM-V, POM-VPS and NFA-VPS categories, is lawfully required to register with the VMD before trading.

The change only applies to new applicants. Retailers already listed on the VMD's Register of Online Retailers or registered under the Accredited Internet Retailer Scheme (AIRS) do not need to do anything.
