TIMELIT covers the subject of medical education. At present the database contains almost 50,000 items collected over the past two decades by the Director of the Centre for Medical Education at Dundee, RM Harden. The personal nature of this collection brings the benefit of relevance, but means the collection cannot be a complete reflection of all the work in any field.
The references cover a range of topics in: healthcare professional education, in health education and in patient education. They also pick up on specific topics, e.g. smoking, and on neglected areas, e.g. palliative care. Sources are many and varied. Journals include: medical education, general education, specialised areas of education, medicine and medical specialities. There is a range of magazines and newsletters - and even some material from newspapers.
Original versions of most references are available in the Centre for Medical Education, Dundee.
TIMELIT is supported by the Scottish Council for Postgraduate Medical and Dental Education, the Association for Medical Education in Europe, and the Association for the Study of Medical Information. These organisations have no editorial or other influence on the information content of the site or the records that appear in the database.
