Start with these library databases to locate articles from scholarly (peer-reviewed) journals in the nursing and allied health fields.
Check out our helpful document delivery services for articles.
Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a borrowing service provided to currently enrolled students, faculty, and staff at National University. This free service allows you to electronically request and receive physical books, articles, book chapters, reports, or other resources when not available in full-text in the NU Library.
Library databases can be used to limit down to very specific types of information. In this class you'll need to locate a quantitative research article written by a nurse. Check out the two tutorials below to get an idea of how to use the limiters in combination with keywords to find your required articles.
