Nursing Department Student Resources Research made easier!!!
Visit the Immaculata library site for online full-text articles. Proquest is a data base of full-text nursing journals. Other databases you may find useful are ERIC (any education topic), JSTOR (for your humanities courses), LexisNexus (legal or business topics), or Academic Abstracts (cross-disciplinary).
To access the databases from home or work, go the library web page and select "Reference Sources."
- When prompted, enter your user name, firstnamelastname (no spaces), and your password. (The default password is the last four numbers of your Social Security number.)
- If you have trouble logging in, please call the Help Desk (during regular business hours) at 610-647-4400 ext 1234.
Also, you can use services of the Libraries of the following Colleges & Universities, (including checking out books!) with your Immaculata ID card:

All students, upon registering, are issued an e-mail account (same login as noted in the library instructions). You can have articles that are not available online in full text e-mailed to this account. To do this, on the Library page, click "Policies & Services" and "Interlibrary Loan", then select journal article and type in your request. (You might want to forward this e-mail account to the one you use on a regular basis.)
