What is CINAHL?
CINAHL is the most important index for finding information in nursing and allied
health literature. It includes nearly every nursing journal published plus
selections
from dental hygiene, emergency services, medical/laboratory technology, alternative
therapies, and other allied health fields. The CINAHL database covers 1982
to
the present. Mostly, you will find records for articles, books and book chapters,
but CINAHL also includes websites, teaching materials, dissertations, and
many
other items.
Why use CINAHL?
CINAHL should be your first stop when you need to find quality information
written for and by nursing professionals and experts. CINAHL indexes over
one thousand journals and is regularly updated. It offers you simple ways to
do complex searches,
so you can find what you need without wasting time. Since few professional
books
and journals are published on the Internet, CINAHL is the best way to
search them.
