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.

Birmingham Dogs Home makes urgent appeal

News Story 1
 Birmingham Dogs Home has issued an urgent winter appeal as it faces more challenges over the Christmas period.

The rescue centre has seen a dramatic increase in dogs coming into its care, and is currently caring for over 200 dogs. With rising costs and dropping temperatures, the charity is calling for urgent support.

It costs the charity £6,000 per day to continue its work.

Fi Harrison, head of fundraising and communications, said: "It's heart-breaking for our team to see the conditions some dogs arrive in. We really are their last chance and hope of survival."

More information about the appeal can be found here.

Avian flu confirmed at premises in Cornwall

A case of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 has been detected in commercial poultry at a premises near Rosudgeon, Cornwall.

All poultry on the infected site will be humanely culled, and a 3km protection zone and 10km surveillance zone have been put in place. Poultry and other captive birds in the 3km protection zone must be housed.

The case is the second avian flu case confirmed in commercial poultry this month. The H5N5 strain was detected in a premises near Hornsea, East Riding of Yorkshire, in early November. Before then, the disease had not been confirmed in captive birds in England since February.

The UK chief veterinary officer has urged bird keepers to remain alert and practise robust biosecurity.
