Journal articles form the core of nursing literature. Each of these databases focus on a different aspect of Health Care and Nursing Research. Selecting the correct database, or trying several of them, when starting your research can make a difference in finding the most rigorous, current, and reliable information.
The core resources above are only a select list of the SPU databases most often used for nursing. There could be times when other databases would be helpful. For example, if you were looking for information about nursing malpractice, you might want to search the database Legal Collection.
