Tucker, a public and university library veteran, and Craig, e-learning coordinator at Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar, describe essential research sources and techniques for nursing students, healthcare researchers, and nurse practitioners who need to gather information independently. Covering both physical libraries and online resources, they explain how each can be used to its best advantage, and describe six major components necessary to the development of information retrieval skills in the nursing and allied health fields.
