CINAHL is the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and the CINAHL Plus With Full Text database allows you to search for articles in hundreds of nursing journals. In addition to journal articles, you'll also find evidence-based care sheets, quick lessons, legal cases, clinical trials, and more.
You may have an assignment that requires you to find an article that fits certain conditions (e.g. published within the last two years). With CINAHL, you can easily limit your search to make sure your results fit all of your assignment criteria, by using the Advanced Search functionality.
