Nursing Research: Scholarly Journals

Databases for Nursing Journal Articles

Set-up Google Scholar to link to Edmonds Library subscriptions

  1. Go to Google Scholar search page
  2. Click on the three lines in the upper left
  3. Click on Settings, then Library Links
  4. Search for Edmonds, then click the check box for "Edmonds College - View it @ Edmonds College"
  5. Click Save
  6. If you are logged into Chrome, this setting will be saved. If not, you can do it just for one session.

Getting articles that aren't full-text:

  1. If there are no PDF, HTML, or Edmonds links on the right, click the title of the article
  2. This will take you to the publisher's website, where the article may or may not be free
  3. If they are asking for money for the article, don't pay!
  4. Try searching the title of the article (not the journal) in quotation marks in Google (not Google Scholar). Believe it or not, this will produce a different set of results and can sometimes lead to full text.
  5. If those strategies do not work, request the article through InterLibrary Loan or email the article title to Haley and she will order the article for you.

Accessing Databases and Articles

  • Library databases require authentication as an Edmonds student. To access, use the links on the library website and enter your Triton ID and password when prompted. If you have any issues, see these Troubleshooting Steps.
  • We have access to millions of articles in our databases, but we don't have everything. However, libraries share resources through InterLibrary Loan. So if you find an article that isn't full-text that you want, place a request for it. Email Haley with any questions!
