Many hospitals and other workplaces implement internet security settings that block access to databases hosted on PNW servers. If you encounter an issue accessing library databases at work, check with your employer's IT department about whether they can unblock access. You can also try another network or log-on from home.
The following is a list of key databases in nursing research. Click on the database name to be directed to the database.
Access to all PNW databases is also available through the library's home page.
